OK do I need a headphone amp ? I got myself a set of DT 770 Pro Headphones and when I got them I was told " you might need a headphone amp with those , even though I'm running the headphones through my sound card ( specs below ) ?
It's for use with a laptop so it needs to be not...a desktop amp

Most compact thing you're going to find is a Dragonfly. get the red version you need the extra power for those headphones. It's the size of a thumb drive, but it's a DAC amp. Obviously a full size plug-in style amp is better but if space is limited and you can't use mains it's what you want.
Always wondered about this. If you can fit it all in something so small, why make such massive amps like some of the Schiit stuff? Is it to command a higher price and give the user a sense of buying a premium item?
