Ok, let's say I have a moderately powered home amp and a moderately powered portable amp, both of which have multiple gain settings. Let's say I have a really inefficient headphone, and my home amp can't quite handle it. Can I switch my 2 amps to high gain, then use the portable to put a little more voltage in the signal path?
Also, would it make sense to do the same with low gain on both, to put more current into a low impedance headphone that's still hard to drive, say a K701?
