= HiFiMAN HE-560 Impressions & Discussion Thread =
I've got my He560 for a month, and I really like how it sounds. But the comfort on it is not the best compared to my hd650, I can wear the hd650 for hours without discomfort but not more than 3hrs with the he560. I guess it's my big ear and the hifiman's ear pad that's causing the problem...- Sdir

I couldn't find anything regarding the amp on the card ,other than the amp chip uses a "Texas Instrument 6120A2 (120dB DAC, 80mW into 600 ohm)".- Sdir

Exactly my confusion. ZxR is drawing power from a single pcie slot within the motherboard, I'm afraid the power drawn isn't enough for an full size headphone, even though advertised as it can drive up to 600ohm cans.- Sdir

Hi all, I recently got a HD650 and really like it. Powering directly from a Creative ZxR card. I'm hearing a lot of people saying a HD650 requires a decent amp to power it to its full potential! So I'm considering an Asgard 2 amp to work with my ZxR card, will there be a improvement? Or...- Sdir
