What would be a good portable Dac/Amp to use with my HD6xx and Sony Xperia 1 V cell phone?
I am new to this hobby. I purchased a HD6XX and plan to use it with my Sony Xperia 1 V cell phone, that has a 3.5mm jack. I was wondering if I needed a portable dac/amp or just a portable amp and if so what would one recommend? Any assistance one could provide, would be greatly appreciated. Kind regards, Haz

The 6xx's actually sound pretty good just off of my iPhone, but I can tell they're a bit flat. If the cheaper 58x's sound better without additional amps, that sounds like a better option for me.
I have the Magni 3 and I am considering getting the Da3, setting the volume to 50% to get a line out level and then amplify it with hte Magni 3. I would prefer a dac with a proper line out, but this seems to be a very good dac that measures well for a very good price. Having the Da3 would also give me a travel option for the HD6XX.
