I’m currently listening to my HD6XX’s with my Olympus 2 FIIO DAC and was wondering if I were to change it, would it impact the sound quality much? Or is volume the only real difference?

    The answer will change depending on how much the person answering has already spent on their gear.

      Lel… I’ve spent 5 digits in total, and I say no, it doesn’t change the sound, except for some very specific pieces of equipment:

      HDV-820 is an amp/DAC that can specifically change the amount of bass your headphone will have, but outside of those special cases, you won’t notice much difference.

      Violectric is another brand where they are noticeably darker sounding than other brands, but these are the only brands of solid state equipment that come to mind.
