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

Anyway, should work great for 50 ohm and above, probably Ok down to 32 ohm.
What no one has mentioned, if global feedback is used, then equivalent output impedance should be lower.
The chip used has high bandwidth and slew. Usually designers add output resistance for stability, like with Topping A30. This is the trade-off. Up until a few years ago, no one would think of designing an amp without some output impedance. I think that owners of 16 ohm Iems or multi-driver iems with poorly designed crossovers, should look at something like O2. Of course, the result of using those with this amp would be flabby boosted bass, which some people like anyway. Also, if there is feedback, maybe this won't happen.
