I'm looking for an AMP/DAC Combo for around $100

[Dnice]

Hello, I am looking for an AMP/DAC Combo for around $100 to power my Sennheiser HD 6XX.

I will mainly use these for gaming and occasional music and movies.

My budget is around $100 for this.

Thanks!

Topping DX1.
Compact, USB powered, great measurements, enough oomph to drive the HD 6XX.

Do you think these Dac/Amp Combos are any better than the Topping DX1?

Thanks again!

Welcome Aboard @Dnice ! Do you happen to be the same Dnice from AVS and a Video Display/TV Calibrator ?

The Sound blaster X1 will power those, the Drop 6XX has plenty of power with it, and it works on anything. Just may need a longer cable since it comes with a C type short one. It kicks into 2.4v over 150ohm.
