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 then handed the Mojo over to my buddy in the next cubicle that has the MD Fostex THX-00 cans and a Micca Origen+ (DAC/AMP). He also confessed that he didn't think he could do a blind test to pick the best DAC. He did comment that he felt the Mojo's amp component had a lot of power that he felt the Origen couldn't match. At the end of the day he said that he felt I should keep the Mojo and sell the other gear on my desk to help cover the cost. I think he just likes saying "Mojo Baby!" with an Italian accent. He went around the office and told people that he stole my Mojo.
All in all I think I want to keep the Mojo. Why you may ask? It is just an awesome, portable dac/amp that I actually could drop in my backpack and take anywhere. I think I may start to buy and download DSD files in the future only problem with DSD is finding an app to convert to PCM. Any suggestions?
