Headphoneus Supremus
Definitely the ATH-R70x would benefit the most from balanced mode. It is 470 ohms and reviews say that it needs a good amount of power. I'd guess that the ES100 doesn't drive it adequately in single-ended mode, and just enough in balanced mode.IHere is my question. From the following list of headphones, which one would most worth trying out in balanced mode?
Factors include:
- Likely to sound better in balanced mode than unbalanced
- Balanced cable would be relatively easy & cheap to acquire
I have easy to drive:
- Etymotic ER4XR
- EMU Teak
- HE400s
I have hard to drive:
- Audio Technica r70x
