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

Should Massdrop be looking into another drop with them - perhaps a little higher up the product line?
The 4XX was essentially 47% less expensive than the MSRP of the HE-400 ($169 vs $299). If that's the case and perhaps Massdrop can work something out to bring a unique version of the Sundara, 560 or the HE-6 to us for a similar discount - would it be worth it?
Rounding down a touch:
Supposed Massdrop : XX-Sundara = approx $300
Supposed Massdrop : HE-56X = Approx $540
Supposed Massdrop : HE-6 = Approx $780
This all assumes that the actual parts do cost that much and they're not marked up higher due to being more of a "Flagship" status.
