Below is the specs for the amp
Headphone Impedance (Ohms) Cute Beyond Output (mW)
AKG 240DF 600 60
Sennheiser HD600 300 120
AKG 501/401 120 300
AKG K270S 75 480
Grado SR60/80 32 320
I would say this amp is better designed to power 120 ohm headphones or below.
Compare this to the Little Dot MKIV
Power Output:
500 mW @ 300/600 ohm - so with 300ohm to 600 ohm headphones this amp drives headphones better
300 mW @ 120 ohm
100 mW @ 32 ohm - but doesn't work as well with the lower ohm headphones. But will still sound ok.
If you have lower ohm headphones, this is where you need the Little Dot 1+ Hybrid delivers as below.
Power Output:
150mW @ 300 ohms
300mW @ 120 ohms
800mW @ 32 ohms
I have heard that the amp is a good amp sound wise, but you might want to look at the ohm level of headphones you might like to use with it.
