Default Emu 0404 USB owners

what headphones do you use with the emu's own amplifier
and how do they work?

What kind of music do you listen?

With the 0404 there is a tendency for my HD580 to sound just a touch veiled. So I prefer the XCAN with the 580 because there is absolutely no veil with that combo.

You need low impedance and/or high sensitivity cans. It's not a very powerful amp. Most of my cans don't work. I've successfully used my Equation RP21s. I imagine Grados can be driven by them. I don't own any Grados so I don't know for sure.
