What factors of a certain headphone could let you know they don't need much amping? Does having a lot of Ohm or whatever they call it, would thaht be one of them? Because I really want good sounding headphones but if their prices go up, so does the price for the AMPs they need and I clearly don't have money for that much.
So what factors are there to know that a headphone doesn't need AMP but has still good quality? Tell me some brands too
