I read this this thread following the link Jahn linked in this thread. Nomad in the first thread said that Earmax original is good for high impedance headphones but not low impedance headphones.
Well from my high school Electrical Engg course I remember that:
i = V/R
So it seems to me that to get enough current to drive a headphone, you need a high voltage or low impedance (or both). So this stumps me that if Earmax original can swing enough volts to drive high impedance headphones, why should it not preform as well for low impedance headphones?
Confused. Can someone clear it?
