    How I chose my high-end headphones.... Almost!! (AKG, Beyerdynamic, Sennheiser, Mbox 3, Amped/Unamped)

    Quote: You are right. It was a typo on their ad. It's the 600 Ohms version. Tube amps are better for the DT880s than SS, right?

    12000 INR!! I have asked them to confirm whether it's a PRO 250 or the 600 Ohms version. And whether it's refurbished or a demo sample or something. Awaiting their reply.

    Quote: Sorry. I think that was the specs of mbox 2 mini. --> 6mW into 50 ohm They havent mentioned the impedance of Mbox 3 Mini in ohms. Does 32R mean 32 Ohms? (I dunno whether that's a dumb question. It's been a long time since I touched my physics books) Anyway, I had sent a...

    AKG K702 Impressions.

    Apogee Duet has an output impedance of 32 Ohms. So the damping factor would be around 2. With my Mbox 3 Mini, it would be slightly above 1. Does this have any impact on the sound quality? I dont like the idea of putting an amp in between a high quality audio interface and a high quality...

    The Avid site says that the Mbox mini has the following output characteristics - 20mW into 32 R. The rated impedance is around 55 ohms. So the damping factor when connected to DT880 600 Ohms would be around 12 while it would be close to 1 with K702. I dont know how this would affect the sound. ...

    Thanks for the replies. I have already decided that I would get either the DT880 or the K701/702. I know that tonality is subjective and everyone will be having a different opinion and we'll never get to a conclusion, but I think soundstage can be analysed more correctly. What I need is a...

    Hi Head-fi, I have to thank you all first for introducing me to the world of good sound. I have been a passive member of Head-fi for over 5 years!! But I have been using it more like Wikipedia than a forum!! I never felt the need to ask anything, because I found all the answers I needed by...
