i have portable amp which is mainly designed for er4p e5c or hd555, dt860 etc, i want to use it on DT770 32ohm version.

i don't know whether it's enough or not? this amp can be only found in my country but it's just somewhat like Storm B4 or Supermacro3(or micro?)

i just don't know DT770 32ohm is easy to drive like DT850 or HD595?
i listen to classical symphonies, that means i need it was really driven well, at least it's require more output than pop songs.

i am a non english native speaker, so excuse about my poor english, thanks all~

You should be fine with the 32ohm DT770.
Don't know about the higher impedance beyers version though ...

Sorry to piggy back on the thread, but I have the same question for the DT770-80 ohm version. I was thinking about getting a Practical Devices XM4, as then it could use it for portable applications as well.

why don't you try it yourself??? 32ohm cans typically sound good even without an amp with a decent source.

i can't try it myself, because there is no 32ohm version sale here, i can only order it through the agent and wait for 1 month for the arrival, once ordered, i have no chance to regret...

if it's as easy to drive as DT860 or HD595, or even K271, my amp could be capable.

i'm sure it will be.

From time to time I have run both 80 ohm and also 32 ohm Darthbeyers from Xin Supermacro LE - it drives them beautifully (also had a Portaphile maxxed that I ran from Elpac, and it also did very nicely by them............but there are also a lot of cheaper amps that really do not do well by them at all.

thanks all.

Voltage = Current X Resistance
Find the voltage supplied by your mp3 player or whatever, to find the current (ohms is resistance). I don't know, find out how loud x amperes (current) translates into x decibels or something.
High school level explanation, possibly flawed.
