Portable amp for Beyerdynamic T1?


At home, I just use the headphone out on my preamp.  Haven't traveled much in the last couple of years, but I'll need to travel a few times for work going forward.  Anybody have a rec for an amp for my T1 that's small and light enough that I can take it in my small carry on bag?

With those headphones you can probably get by with an AudioQuest Dragonfly Red or Cobalt, but as they’re open-back ‘phones I don’t see them working on a plane at all.  You could buy reasonably-priced earbuds for the flight and use your T1s when not in the air, or you could buy the well-regarded Sony NC headphones that sound better and more accurate than Bose and you don’t have to let anyone know you bought Bose.  IMHO, Bose is better at cancelling sound than reproducing it.  FWIW…
