Thanks I will do this, I need a cheap DAC to go with it then? As this is amp only correct? I can't afford two high parts, so grab the Darktune, and can you recommend like a $50 DAC? Or can I somehow jimmyrig my Schiit Fulla DAC to the Darktune?
Yea you'd need a DAC, the DV is just an amp. I don't know much about the Fulla and its inputs, their customer support is usually stellar so I'm sure if you contact them asking if you can connect the fulla to a dedicated amp they will be able to help you.
Schiit's Modi 2 is regarded as one of the best (probably the best?) DAC under $100. I understand this exceeds your initial budget by quite a fair bit but the T90s are nice headphones, Beyerdynamic's own amp, the A20, that is (as far as I'm aware) basically designed to be paired with the T90s costs like $500 for just an amplifier. If there is any way you can stretch your budget upward of like $300~ rather than 200 for the DV + Modi 2 then I'm certain you'd not regret it, the headphones deserve it and and will respond accordingly. These components last a very long time too so unless you really feel the urge to upgrade to something better they are a pretty solid future-proof investment for the most part.
