My ear is somewhere around 4 inches tall. Would this work for my big ass ears? Or should I wait for 6xx to drop for a better fit?

kiddI think I’d find a pair to try on before buying. The Sennheiser 6XX are probably a safer bet. I’m sure they’ll be dropped again. The Sennheiser are outstanding headphones. i use with an amp though. The closer you get to really good studio grade... the more you hear the difference with an amp.
If you’re sourcing from a headphone jack, you don’t need a DAC... which I’ve seen a few people recommend. Any headphone jack, whether on your smartphone or computer, is already analog. You only need a DAC if you’re using a digital source.
the amp keeps you from overdriving your smartphone or sound card amp. You get distortion when you overdrive. Might get loud enough, but for the best quality sound use an amp with good headphones.
