I was looking at the schiit asgard amplifier so i dont have to always sit next to my reciever to amplify my headphones, and i noticed that it comes in two voltages, but i dont understand the effect that getting one or the other would have on the audio reproduction. Can anyone explain the significance of current, wattage, voltage, etc? or a relevant website would help

That's just the mains voltage. You have to use the appropriate voltage for your region.

 

If you're in the US, you'd get the 115 volt version. If you're in Europe, you'd get the 230 volt version. That's all there is to that. The headphone amp itself operates the same with either voltage.
