They have a dongle that is pretty nice. But why would I want to run my really nice headphones with iPhone as the source?

Not all "really nice" headphones are high-impedance, and if they were a headphone amp isn't a source, it's an amp.

The source is the DAC and the DAC in that dongle is better than most audiophile DACs are. Remember, audiophile equipment is scams made by small companies and iPhone dongles have bigger R&D budgets than their entire industry.
