Get headphones that are easy to drive. My pair of cans are the Grado SR-225s & they have a normal impedance of 32 ohms. This means it can be plugged straight into the back of the computer or portable playing device & have loud sound (maybe not so much with the portable playing device but it will still work). Say for example you buy Sennheisers HD-580 cans: they have a normal impedance of 300 ohms. These wont run to well without the amp (& wont work at all with the portable playing devices). Best to check what impedance your headphones have first.
If i were to buy an amp Id go for a duel output amp for 2 headphones at a time. (My personal prefenence as I produce music & have other people occasionally use my other headphone set.) If you just want 'One' headphone amp then the Shure FP-22 Stereo is your best bet.
If you go the low impedance headphone option I recommend the Grado SR225s. These are freaken awesome cans for music lovers. They are hi-end cans with amazing bass & freakingly clear sound. |
