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

Probably going to be a M1060 swap, so compared to protein leather pads, what would each offer?
I’m guessing it would be more challenging to describe something relative to the hybrid pads on the HE4XX, and I don’t know that I care enough anyway to swap them now, but having a thicker pad there would be nice, so knowing the effects, at least for future reference is probably worthwhile.
It sounds like the suede is not for me since I find my treble a little much as is. But, given all of the recommendations for the Audeze microsuede, I'm still curious. Maybe my issue is more that it's peaky, rather than actually hot, and these would even it out? Not sure exactly how these compare to the Audeze pads, nor whether that's a sound I'm really trying to achieve since I didn't care enough to read up on $80 pads that are perpetually sold out. Of course, lambskin is also going to be different from fake leather (which I've always felt is super plasticky), so maybe that's what I need.
It sounds like I should just go solid lambskin, but given the wait time, I'm going to sit here annoyed and second guessing things the whole time if I don't ask.
Any assistance @ZMFheadphones?
These do pair up with the low end power descriptions of those though, so I’m curious if the top is actually any different from Audeze now. I’ll likely do the same and just go with lambskin if I don’t hear anything different.
