I am not really a sound science type, as I don't understand these things well, but I thought I would ask here if anyone knows.
We are all familiar with impedance matching. For example with my Denon D2000 (25 ohms) I would want to find an amp that has an output impedance of 3 ohms or less. But what about current matching? Is there any way to know the most effective amount of current or voltage needed to drive a certain pair of headphones to their best state of sound? Could we look at sensitivity or something and determine how much minimum current our particular headphones require in order to work as the manufacturer intended?
Sorry if this doesn't make sense at all.
