Bowers & Wilkins C5 driver type?
I have these and was wondering if they are dynamic or balanced armature? What's the difference exactly? Also, these have 32 Ohm drivers and my Beyerdynamic COPs have 16 Ohm drivers. Why are these easier to drive than the COPs if they have higher resistance? Thanks for any answers!- jeremy205100

So I bought a pair of C5's at the beginning of my search, and loved the sound but they were uncomfortable and difficult to get situated right. A short time after returning them I tried the P7's and fell in love. I've been using the P7's ever since and love them, but have been looking for a...- randy98mtu
