to answer red - the HP-2 is a low impedance can, but it is highly inefficient. you're probably finding yourself cranking the volume knob up more than you would with, say, the RS-1.
also, the HP-2 is a more neutral can than the RS-1. the warm nature of your source coupled with a neutral can may just not excite you. just like a lively source would make your RS-1 sound bright, perhaps screechy. it just so happens you've found a high-end version of Grado Synergy - lively active RS-1 with warm expansive source = your hat trick.
