I should have posted on this forum to begin with as it's really the most relevant. Currently I have Sony MDR-ZX700's but will be getting some DT990 Pro or Premiums (not decided yet) 250Ohms cans. My current amp is either the headphone out on my P5Q Deluxe motherboard (I am trying to get Asus to give me the technical specs on that but I don't hold out much hope) or my Sony STR-DB790 surround sound receiver (I also use an iPod Nano 6G on the move). After bugging Sony I finally got them to email the specs for the headphone out.
50 kilo Ohms @ 86 dB (A, 2.5mV). No mention of the THD or which impedance cans are suitable for this amp.
Is this 'good enough' to drive the two sets of cans I mentioned properly or should I be looking at a dedicated DAC like the FiiO E10?
EDIT: I hate it when I mess up the thread title and can't edit it.
