Increasing HP sensitivity about 5db, does it make a real diference ?
I asked this question under another thread, and got no reply. Let me put it another way. Would 5db difference in HP sensitivity make a noticeable difference ? Or do I have to go , let's say 10 db, or more and that's to be used with a portable player. My 91db headphones don't sound great with...- zeiter

I just received my DX100 DAP, and I like it a lot. I got it based on many reviews here and there that it could drive the LCD-3, and I did not want a player with an amp attached. Anyway , it does drive my LCD-3 ( they're 45 ohms ) but unlike some reviews " with authority, ideal, etc...) I find...- zeiter
