Haha, testing it is the only way you'll learn! That's how I did it!
But in terms of impedance, it doesn't necessarily have to do with quality. But generally speaking, the best headphones require some kind of amp because of their impedance. The lack of generally results in low volume, and poor frequency response...or at least not to their potential. It'll sound good compared to other phones of lesser quality, but they can sound SO much better with a good amp. Amps also vary in quality as well, but when you pair them up with high end headphones.... the better the amp, the better the sound!

Am I right that impedence doesn't have as much to do with quality as it does with quantity and the amp has more to do with quality and being able to deliver it with quantity? |
