Hey everyone,
This is my first post on Head-Fi
I own an Apple iPod (Maximum output power 60 mW rms -30 mW per channel)
I am using a pair of Sony E888-LP earphones with the iPod right now, but I would like to buy a pair of full size headphones for the iPod because Im sick of wearing the earbud's.
So my question is, does the iPod have enough power to drive the Grado SR-80's to the full extent? Since I am not planning to purchase a headphone amplifier, which headphone would sound better with the iPod - Grado Sr-60 or Grado Sr-80?
I have read on "Headroom" that the Grado Sr-80's might require a headphone amplifier to out-perform the Grado Sr-60's. I don't mind spending the extra 30 bucks to get better results, but my biggest concern is whether the Sr-80's can be driven by my iPod.
