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

I received one from the last drop and am very pleased with the sound of the product. It's an awesome little device and I'm using it constantly!
I am, however, experiencing a problem with it which I thought might decrease with use, but hasn't. Every so often (used to be about every 15 minutes, now it seems more random, or when I press skip on my iPod) the music transforms into jarring, distorted, metallic noise wherein the song is kind of identifiable, but is unlistenable as well potentially damaging to my ears. I haven't heard of this problem in these forums or on head-fi (only about the hiss that some people experience with Shures, etc.), so I'm thinking it's a defective unit. I also have some video recorded of it happening, if that's of interest to you.
I'm wondering what the process would be to have it exchanged. Please let me know.
Thanks
