I'm looking at the specs for the Headroom bithead amp right now and one of their points is that the amp "work(s) BEST with low-impedance headphones."
Define "low-impedence" for me please?
I have Sony MDR-NC50's and MDR-V6's. From reading the specs at Sony the NC50's impedence specs are the follow. Are these spec considered low or high?
• when the power is on - 40 ohms at 1kHz
• when the power is off - 100 ohms at 1kHz
I have no idea what the impedence on the V6's are but I have a similar question there.
As a sideline.. I'm looking to spend around 100-150 on an headphone amp.. if the bithead isn't the right one, can someone suggest something else?
FYI this is for use with my iPod Photo 60GB.
Thanks..!!
