You'll need an SPDIF DAC like this one Then you can hook up your wireless headphones to the DAC.
If you search PS4 amp on Amazon you get several results across multiple price points. This for example looks solid but has some reviews you may want to inspect before purchase.
The one I wrote in my original post is one that I own and know works wonders. Unfortunately I haven’t used any of these amps to report and recommend, but more than happy to look around.
Another option would be pretty much the same thing I mentioned except for having a volume control. https://www.amazon.com/PROZOR-Digital-Converter-Supports-control/dp/B06XDLCHY7
What you're looking for is a headphone amplifier or a DAC, though I'm not seeing very many headphone amps with TOSLink (optical) built-in. You could use a converter to go from TOSLink to RCA and then use a headphone amp to go from RCA to your headphones. I found this guy on Amazon, but I don't know anything about it and cannot in any way vouch for its quality: https://www.amazon.com/Digital-Optical-Converter-Headphone-Amplifier/dp/B003XCHCLC
Alternatively, if you hook up a home theater system most receivers have a 1/4" jack on them (but that's a lot of expense if you're just trying to get a headphone connection).
EDIT: Ah! After a bit of searching, I think I found exactly what you need: https://www.amazon.com/PROZOR-Digital-Converter-Supports-control/dp/B06XDLCHY7/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1538502346&sr=8-2-spons&keywords=toslink+to+RCA&psc=1
At $22 it's not going to be all that great, but it will get you the connection you're looking for. This will probably sound about as good as the output from your iPod, but it won't compare to a proper headphone amp. If you want a high quality setup, you'll want a high quality DAC paired with a headphone amp.
What headphones are you using?
My dad passed down his Martin Logan Vantages and his Krell kav 400xi amplifier to me. Growing up with him I was used to listening to them with a pretty high end source (he had a high end record player and CD player.) He kept the sources, so this is my current setup:
XBox sends sound to TV via HDMI, then through the optical audio out on the TV to a DAC (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XDLCHY7/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1), which is connected directly to the amp.
I typically am just streaming Spotify, but I often hear distortion in songs where previously there was none. It just doesn't sound too good. I don't really own CDs; streaming music is what I do. I know I won't get the same high-end sound as a CD or a vinyl, but what would be your recommendation for a source that will stream to the krell amp?
Thanks!

Just to confirm:
ps4 connected to Optical to RCA analog converter
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XDLCHY7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_2Sx1DbEX2GJC1
Then: RCA to XLR cable run from converter to speakers
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077L3PG45/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_IVx1DbM7QG40N
would this work? https://www.amazon.com/PROZOR-Digital-Converter-Supports-control/dp/B06XDLCHY7/ref=redir_mobile_desktop?_encoding=UTF8&dpID=419qZ0dihuL&dpPl=1&keywords=dac%2Bamp&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&qid=1501564594&ref=plSrch&ref_=mp_s_a_1_7&sr=8-7&th=1
Well a good route could be Fiio D3 for a cheapo DAC with optical in, which I find cleans up a lot of the noise especially when compared to USB DACs. Spend a little more on the amp, which impacts the sound more than the DAC.
PC>optical cable>Fiio D3>RCA>Schiit Magni
Should be under $150 including cables/shipping.
Edit: just saw what you were running. You really don't need much for your headphones. Honestly if you're having problems with a "noisy" source all you'd really need is an optical DAC to clean things up. Your source should provide more than enough power to power your audio technicas.

Cheap and well reviewed.
Im not good at how to look at how good my dacs is on the motherboard. Here is however the link of it. It does have optical out.
I do have an external [dac](PROZOR Digital to Analog Converter 192kHz DAC Supports Volume control Digital Coaxial SPDIF Toslink to Analog Stereo L/R RCA 3.5mm Jack Audio Adapter https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B06XDLCHY7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_zzfHEXmPKizcD) which i bought for my ps4. Is that good enough?
I know i said a big ass speaker wont work but I would still like to look into it. Maybe its big enough that it might actually fit in my small ass desk.
I used to use bluetooth headphones with my pstv and the sound was decent but I recently switched to a toslink converter and the sound quality is much much better. I think most tvs have an optical audio out.
The one I got has no volume control which is a little annoying but you can get a headphone volume knob or this model has one built in.
Gives probably the best setup possible for rhythm games on pstv, music also sounds 10x better.

Use DAC for headphones. You’re GF is going to love that crisp sound.
Here’s the one I used. It’s a 192 khz 24bit DAC amplifier with volume control.

Tested on Pacific Rim 4k *fight scene, ohh boy it’s so good.
can you tell me what you think about this please??https://www.amazon.com/PROZOR-Digital-Converter-Toslink-Adapter/dp/B06XDLCHY7/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1543191372&sr=8-4&keywords=dac&th=1
ASUS Gaming z170 something or other mobo (I can get the model later if needed)
Vizio 40" from 2015 > TOSLINK and RCA audio out.
Schiit Modi 2 and Magni 2 Uber
Old Sansui A-5 Stereo amp.
I am using basic cables all around, HDMI, Optical, and RCAs. Once again I have no noise issue when running direct from my PC TOSLINK to the Modi, but if I run through the TV there is noticeable hiss.
I also have a cheap DAC/Amp like this:
https://www.amazon.com/PROZOR-Digital-Converter-Supports-control/dp/B06XDLCHY7/ref=mp_s_a_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1540561437&sr=8-8&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=dac+amp
It is probably the best option right now but it clutters up my desk with the cable layout. It will work if I have no other option though.
I just wish the Sansui and the Modi shared a connection type. If I could just buy a splitter that would send the signal to both, I'd be fine.
What about this?
