Well I use my Marantz SR4400 to Drive my bookshelf Speakers and I plug my headphones (Dt 770 Pro) into the Headphone jack. So is my Marantz a headphone Amp as well?

low imp cans can sound very nice from a reciever (remember the speaker imp. is 4-8 ohmns) - but high imp. cans don't fare to well. |

It's the only way to judge gear. |
