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

- Price lower than 200 dollars, even 150 or 100 if possible
- Mobile-friendly - I want to use them with my phone and laptop without investing extra money in an amp and dac.
- Preferebly over-ear, but comfortable on-ears are fine too.
- I'm planning on using them only at home (I have earbuds for commuting) for music, movies, videos and a bit of gaming, and I listen for most genres, but mostly rock (from queen to a7x).
- Open back because I did some research, and even though I never tried one, they seem to fit my needs (use at home) and I'd like to try a pair
In my research and came across headphones like the hd598, Grado sr60/80/125e (even though they are on ear), k7xx, dt990s and more, and since I'm new in this subject, I'm very confused (so many headphones).Do you have any recommendations for me on this topic?
