Dx3pro noob question

[archangel015]

Hello, I'm still new to this so forgive my ignorance, I'm eyeing on that dx3pro. I'm wondering if I still need an amp for it if I use it as a dac or maybe vice versa. I'm also eyeing on that JDS atom but I don't know if I should follow the dx3pro as dac +atom or atom+other dac (please do recommend one around $200-300 if so).

It can be used as an amp and a DAC at the same time. No need to buy anything else.

Does setting it to headphones automatically use its dac and amp together?

I guess so. I don't own the DX3 Pro myself.
There's a review thread where I'm sure the owners would be happy to answer your questions specific to the product.
