DSD DAC/Headphone amp for iPhone?

I have Sennheiser HD800 and Beyerdynamic Amiron headphones. What is your recommendation for the best combo DSD/DAC headphone amp out there? I want use my iPhone X as my hi res DSD playback device using the currently installed Onkyo HF Player app that plays DSD ( .DFF and .DSF) files.
Is there such a plug and play Portable converter amp? If so what’s the cat’s meow? Money no object.
It must be truly portable. Ie. Battery powered/chargeable.
Thanks!

+1 Hugo2 ... greater resolution ... possibly a better choice for DSD.

Cobalt...your earphones are good enough to hear the nuances.

Another potential option is the xDuoo HD05 Plus.  Lots of power and good battery life, and it gets very solid reviews for sound and value.  A bonus (at least to me) is that it gives you the ability to swap op amps so, along with the four different onboard digital filter options, you can custom tailor the sound to your liking.  Best of luck.
