It amazes me how many times the topic of how easy or hard something is to drive gets confused.
What determines how easy or hard a headphone is to drive is NOT impedance. It's sensitivity. sensitivity, as measured in dB per watt or milliwatt, is how loud a headphone will play given a certain output power.
Where impedance comes into play is how many watts a given amp can produce into the load presented by the headphone. That will depend on the topology of the amp.
