Hello,
first post here, greetings to all friends...

The question is if earphones like
 
Sennheiser PXC 450
Studio Beats
JVC HA-NC250
 
as ranked in this review,
 
would be suitable or advisable to use with android phones,
like samsung galaxy sIII, and to listen to music on PCs,
even with onboard sound, but listening to lossless files (like flac and so).
 
Some reviews state that this family of earphones request
an external amp in order to deliver proper sound quality. Would it still be good
if directly plugged into the mobile phone or PC?
 
Thanks,
Xezi

Not sure what they measure at but generally low impedence headphones are better suited to phones, Daps etc.  The higher the impedence the quieter they will be due to them being harder to drive, I'd try to avoid going beyond 50 ohms or so earphone impedence for phone use.
 
You are probably better asking this question in the earphones section for a more detailed reply.

Indeed. Sorry.
 
Moved to guidance section.
 
Thank you.
