Hello, I am pretty new to field of impedance and audio, and I was wondering if the combination of Sennheiser PC 350 + Creative X-FI Titanium HD is optimal.
The X-Fi has an output of up to 330Ohms on the headphone out, and the impedance of the PC350 is 150Ohms.
I have no idea how impedance works. Is it ok to plug in the Sennheisers into the X-fi, even though the headfi outputs much higher impedance?
I am considering using a CmoyBB amplifier as well, would this work better than directly to the card?
Thank you very much for your responses! My main concern is the impedance question
