Recommend AMP / DAC for the HD 6XX

Does anyone have a suggested AMP / DAC for the Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 6XX?

Thanks everyone for the suggestions, after review I ended up getting the Schiit Modi 2 and Vali 2!

I'm using a "Mayflower ARC MK2" for my 58X's and it works great. It's on the pricy side of "budget" dac/amps but the quality is there. There are cheaper options that may give you what you want. Check out Schiit Audio. They have "Fulla" and the "Hel" that are technically aimed at gaming (as is the ARC MK2) but as far as I can tell are pretty solid products. I see some folks recommending the Schiit Magni, which is also a good option if you want to have a stack. Good luck in your search.

I use a little dot mkii and Geshelli J2. Been looking at the xduoo ta-26 as its on sale. The Sennis love tubes to be sure! If you arent in for tube distortion have also run them on drop thx789 with Geshelli J2 and JDS atom stack. Both great. I prefer the 789 over the JDS myself but that JDS is a great bang for the buck!

Good choice in DAC/AMP stack... You now have plenty of room to grow, you could even add a Magni to the stack later down the road. You know for those times when you don't want the added "noise/warmth" the tube provides. I went with the Schiit Hel, because it had mic input with gain control

I use a Chord Mojo and the results are phenomenal.

I’ve been using JDS lab el DAC II and el AMP II, got them from back stock cheaper and they work really well, already 2 years strong and no problem.

I bought a Topping A30Pro. I don't there is another amp with this much power.

While maybe not the best, I’ve had good success with the audio engine D1. Significant upgrade over plugging into a PC, and I was able to get it new for 135.

I've used it with my O2 Dac / Amp for years and loved it. Tried the Schiit Hel and that's good too Then I moved to SMSL SU-9 / SH-9 stack and wow. The headphone just went up another level.
I've used a Fii0 E10k for the past 3 years on HD600s and HD6XXs and I've loved it.

Your post is almost 5 years old so I assume you have something by now. But...for the sake of conversation, this is the one I landed on. It's tremendous. https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=24459

WordsandMusicI love the THX chips. I use the SMSL SP200 with the 888 chip.
