so my amps are way to powerful for headphones can barely move them 5 degrees with he-5s power hungry headphones anyone know how to do this without losing any sq in the process.

I just turn down the volume on my source usually. Have you tried that?

Lowering gain would raise noise?

if you didn't sell your DT880/600, you can probably put that to a good use now.

 

[momomo6789]

he-5s require a little more then the dt880s did.

If you really want to lower the dB of a file, you CAN add negative ReplayGain information.

Are we looking at the same headphone?

Head-Direct.com | YUIN

It says Impedance: 25 Ohms

 

[momomo6789]

yes we are and they need more power!

He-5 87 dB, 1 mW
beyers 96 dB , 1 mW

Could you use some attenuators or add extra impedance to the line?
