Hi guys,
I hope everyone is swell.
In short, I am wondering if my Fiio X3 second gen could damage my Beyer T5p 2nd gens?
Reason I'm now curious about this is because the other day when I was switching between headphones on the X3 and left the volume at 105 / 120 at high gain (+ 9.2dB) when i plugged in the T5P's and played for approximately 6 or 7 seconds (it was very loud, and at a loud moment in the song too). They were plugged directly into the headphones out at the time, no extra amping.
I wouldn't usually be worried (and I can't seem to hear a difference in the headphones) but are my X3's capable of hurting the Beyers? What makes me nervous is the Beyers only have a power handling capacity of 300mW (also a max sound pressure level of 126dB, 32ohms).
I am having trouble understanding the Fiio X3ii specs. I am trying to figure out what output they may have been at when this happened... Output specs for 32ohms Fiio state: > 200mW (THD+N <1%).
All I understand there is that the Fiio is capable of delivering more than 200mW (unless I am severely mistaken). really do no have experience in DAP specs.
Does anyone here know the max Fiio output and from this the likelihood of them damaging my T5P drivers? Its the T5P max capacity of 300mW that has me concerned. I want to know not just because of what happened but for future reference as well.
Cheers for the help.
