Just overall the sound is cleaner and smoother than plugging straight into the headphone jack. Probably due to the DAC module or something. The new Macbook Pros are definitely loud enough though.ĭo I really need a dedicated Amp/DAC for my HD 6XXs when using a 16" M1 Macbook Pro? What are the benefits of an external Amp/DAC for the HD 6XXs?Įdit: I got the Asgard.

I got a Schiit Magni/Modi which worked great. Look out for monitors that come with a good range of ports that will work for a range of Macbooks. However, newer MacBooks feature a USB-C port instead. Those with older MacBook Pro’s will be able to use the USB or HDMI ports with ease.
#GOOD HEADSET FOR MACBOOK PRO PRO#
I previously had an Intel 16" Macbook Pro with some HD 600s, and that wasn't quite loud enough. The first thing you will need to do is check that the monitor is compatible with your MacBook Pro. I just bought a Schiit Asgard with a DAC module, but now I'm wondering if it's even worth using if my Macbook Pro can properly drive HD 6XXs pretty easily. They are actually louder than my Airpods Max (and of course sound better). I just got some HD 6XXs and plugged them directly into the headphone jack of my 16" M1 Macbook Pro. The new M1 Pro/Max Macbook Pros now have support for high impedance headphones.
