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

So, in order to set proper expectations before I decide to join the drop or not, I hope someone can provide some insight in better detail. Specifically, should I expect any of the following problems from a typical, "acceptable" example:
- Wobbly base - Many tiny white spots where the wood was stretched - Uneven sanding causing noticeable dark patches of stain - Rough spots in the finish that catch on fabric and might tear bits off - Finish is not glossy nor smooth like the marketing photo
Some of these are not so important to me, but others are, so if someone preferably from MD can tell me what would be acceptable or not when they do their QC pass, I would appreciate it. That way I could either buy in confidence, or take a pass and avoid being an unhappy customer.
Realistically if you're not happy with it, you can pay to ship it back to us and we'll ship you a different/second one.
Some from the earlier batches (6-12 months ago) were completely unacceptable, and those are older posts discussing/relating to that. (i.e. ignore posts that are from 4+ months ago, they relate to a different manufacturing and QA process/batch)
