Which pair of headphones are the most difficult to drive?
I know the Hifiman HE-6 stands out as truly power hungry, as does the AKG K-1000, but are there headphones that go even beyond those? Headphones that have even lower sensitivity or ridiculously high impedance? I'm just asking out of pure curiosity :)- Plecto

What are the most power hungry high impedance headphones?
I see. So there are special types of high voltage amplifiers meant for these headsets?- Plecto

What are the most power hungry high impedance headphones?
I can't find what makes these so difficult to drive though. Do they have a very high impedance or are they just very inefficient?- Plecto

What are the most power hungry high impedance headphones?
Lower impedance's isn't a problem, my amp can deliver close to 8W into 50Ohms. I'm glad to hear that there aren't many high impedance headphones that require the same kind of power :)- Plecto

What are the most power hungry high impedance headphones?
Hi. I'm constructing a headphone amplifier that's supposed to drive any pair of headphones, but I'm not sure of how powerful I actually need it to be. I'm currently getting about at least 1W output up to about 150Ohms which is enough to blow most headphone, but what about headphone with a higher...- Plecto

Uni project. Please respond to a 3 minuter survey :)
We are currently working on a project where the idea is to start a virtual business that manufacture and sell headphone amplifiers. Please respond to this quick survey if you have the time. The idea is to get a general idea of what needs we are actually trying to meet. ...- Plecto
