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?

Yes and no… solid state have much less impact on sound and should be pretty neutral for the most part unless the manufacturer intentionally made adjustments to tune them in a specific way…
Tube amps, on the other hand, can be extremely clean and neutral or can add color and warmth. This all comes down to what the user wants, the setup, and tubes used.
