The 80 ohm version is only slightly easier than the 250 ohm. ie the volume difference is not huge. However the Headfive drives the 80 ohm easily. It also drives the 250 ohm well actually as long as you have a strong line out from the source.
If you intend to go from a DAP, then you need low impedance/sensitive headphones. I would have liked just a little more gain for this, or a switch from low to high gain.
I'm not sure what the 32 ohm version sounds like. Jan seems to think they are all similar si it may not be critical. The 250 ohm versions is a bit more steely in the treble than the 80 ohm version. I don't know for sure about the 32. Both 80 and 250 ohm versions work well with the Headfive. (Although, Jan is not keen on any of them, I know)
