If no one here gets back to you for certain, you can ask on the HD600 thread in the main forum.

ClieOS stated in his review that a design goal of the E12 was that it would be able to drive even 600 ohms. I would bet it would do quite well.

Oh well that's the way the cookie crumbles. The hd 600 I had my eyes set sold for a higher price that i could afford , so it looks like might be going to my next option of the sound magic HP:200.
Any thoughts on these headphones ?:rolleyes:

Well I couldn't just let it ly, so I have orderd a set of HD600 now

Thank You. As they say... In for a penny.in for a pound.

While I'm waiting for my HD600 I thought I would check out my dad's old cans, the HD400 and blimey you might need a V8 to push them!! but if no V8 to hand a X5 with E12 works.. And I must admit that for the age of them I'm impressed.

There has been some new tech for speakers and headphones that can make it easier/cheaper to make good sound. But paper cones, for example, are still used in some top speakers--the older tech is not obsolete, there are just alternatives now.

So yeah. Great speakers and headphones from 20 to 30 years ago can still sound great today

Oh, and amps are the same way. It is mainly the digital electronics that have seen significant advances.
