I am looking for a portable amp and the Fiio E12 looks like it will fit the bill nicely. I am wondering, what would be the advantage (if any) of a amp/DAC such as the Fiio E17? My intended use will be with an iPhone or iPod. It is my understanding the a the DAC feature of say an Fiio E17 would be to have the option of bypassing a crummy PC sound card. Would a DAC have any use or advantage with an iPhone or iPod? My cans are the 64 ohm Jaycar Pro Monitors ( a clone of the Fischer FA-003 / Brainwavz HM5 ). Many thanks for your replies.
