wolnavithx00 are not very hard to drive. I'd think you'd be safe with the DACPort slim, but I doubt they'd be comparable in terms of quality or features. You're talking the difference between a $100 DAC/amp and a $500 DAC/amp. It's not really a fair comparison. Obviously Grace Design wins out.
I can say that I'm quite happy with my DACPort slim though.

HeeftyI see... I do plan to get grace design maybe next year due to my limited budget... Wanted to get this first because I thought it can solve my problem which is that whenever I use the thx00 on my iPhone 6+, I only need to put the volume to half to be able to listen to music normally whereas when I'm on my computer, I need to put the volume to 50% before I can hear it properly. This might sound weird but my previous headphones (Razer headphones lol) can be heard on my computer properly with just 20% volume and half volume on iPhone 6+...

wolnaviThat's because the output amps on smartphones are too pathetically weak to drive any headphone/earbud/in-ear properly. The DACPort slim is more than capable of driving your cans though.
