I'm looking to build a headphone amplifier for my newly purchased DT770 Pro 250 ohm cans. However, when I look for op amps specifically designed for use in headphone amplifiers, they are usually optimized for 8-32 ohm headphones. So I look at the "professional audio" category, and the amps are all designed for the 600-2000 ohm range.
How do I select an op amp that will work with headphones in that 250 ohm range? I'm afraid the amps built for a 600 ohm load won't have a very good response because of the low impedance load my headphones provide, and the amps built for the 32 ohm loads won't have enough power. What should I do?
