Can I use my Hip Dac 2 as a DAC for Valhalla?

I play DayZ on ps5 and love to have music on in the background and since i've firmewareupdated the Hip Dac 2 it supports PS5.

The main reason i would love to throw the Hip Dac in the mix is the bassboost which both my DT880 250 ohms and HD650 benefit greatly from.

Is this double amping and is it really that bad?

My other option is to go from ps5 to tv via hdmi with optical out to my onkyo reciever and out with phono.

Any suggestions highly appreciated!

Just got the Valhalla. Cant figure out how to use the Line Out (Zone 2) of my Onkyo. So i am running the illegal method, phones out of the Onkyo.

Suprisingly impressive once i found the volume sweetspot.

Will order some UAC1 dac to use USB-C out of my ps5 (suggestions???).
