@TRA ahh will check out the Zuperdac as well. There's a local shop (walking distance) that's an offical Dragonfly supplier so will go take a look at it.
@Mr_Sworld ooo! That's really useful. I was amazed at the drastic difference. Given that website, explains why the ATH50x sound so much better on the MBP. Probably sound even better with a new DAC (although I dunno if I really need one at work)
Also found a chart which put the iPhone 5 at "1" for volume. The Nexus 6P was rated 0.2 on the same scale. There's quite a few threads around complaining about how quiet it is.
