Hi there everybody
I am really curious to know the role Impedance plays in the sound of IEMs and earphones.
I understand that higher Impedance headphones need higher voltages to operate, and they probably need an amplifier to supply them with enough power. But does Impedance of a headphone play a role in the color or quality of the sound ?
is there a typical difference between the sound of lower impedance IEMs (16 ohms) to higher ones (85 ohms)
thanks for sharing your wisdom
