Come across these headphones , only headphones no external unit (amp ?), now wondering if I can use it without that original AKAI amp?

Not for sure just looked them up and seems the cable connection is quite different than a Stax amp that would be the obvious choice of running them.

This is DIN 5 pole jack, used offten in Germany and Europe, can be easy changed to 6.3mm jack

 

[buke9]

NO that will not work. Electrostatic headphones can’t use 6.3mm connections .

Are the headphones using some kind of transformer as electrostatic speakers?
Than this speakers cant be used with integrated amplifier?

 

[buke9]

I don’t know but pretty sure they can’t be used as other than a electrostatic headphone.
