Hello all. I admit to have quite a hard time really understanding impedance/driving requirements so I am asking your help.
Let's consider the E4000. Declared specs: Impedance 15 Ohm. Sensitivity 97dB.
I own a Fiio X3 MK3. Recommended Headphone impedance from 16 Ohm up. Declared output 120 mW at 16 Ohm (single-ended).
So my question is: will the X3 be good enough to drive the E4000 at all, and/or without over-raising the volume ? Or will it be undespecced, and unable to "open" E4000's sound?
Thanks in advance for your input
