I have two pairs of Sennheisers currently, an old HD425, and a lighter HD495 I got for portable use. The 425 is 600 Ohms impedance, and a hard to drive phone. I am hoping the PocketAmp will be able to work with these two.

Nice to see LTUCCI1924 is already using it - mine is in the mail, but didn't come in this weekend, bummer. Monday probably. I was quite impressed by the specs and detailed website, and the seller was very good, attentive and quick. He's a young Electrical Engineer.

Fred, I noticed above that you have a pair of AKG K501s - this is on my wish list for a loong time, and I now found suppliers in my area I can buy them from. How do you like them? I heard good comments on them, but there seems to be some people not interested in them.

My favourite music includes Classical, Jazz, vocals, and folk, not much into loud or rock at this time. Do you think the K501s would work for me?
