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

pad product quality itself is good enough and comfort. but these... these just change the sound characteristic compare to original pad. (and I knew these would be happen from someone's the reddit/head-fi review)
it lose bass/lower bass a bit which you could notice directly not only from the measurements difference. these may need to be less thick. maybe half thickness itself. original pad only 1/3~1/4 thickness against these. (except plastic rim, pad sponge only)
here is my measurements from hd800s with miniDSP ears. graphs are alinged at 1khz and no smooth aplied. red : stock L/R average. green : fenestrated sheepskin L/R average. blue : elite velour L/R average. (I put the original inner liner stay in)
I do not recommend these pads to anyone who want to keep original sound characteristic. these look good when just display at headphone hanger and feel comfort when you wearing it on. but sound just different.
