i will admit as well that i do not know everything. it's good to see you know your stuff and i'm not hating on headamps at all. i'm not disagreeing either on your findings. most if all amps won't have issues running out of current or voltage for headphones. usually most amps/receivers won't have issues with big voltages and impedance spikes(16-100ohms) but it's the impedance load of 4ohms and under that can be an amp killer. it's usually the circuit tapeolgy design and how well it handles the shift of current and voltages change due to impedance spikes and dips.
speakers it only takes given so that's why wattage is not much a big factor when powering speakers.
it can range from anywhere of to i mean you can easily change the resistor value of the receiver/amp to send 6w into 32ohms but that much will kill your hearing and the drivers since it only take a 1 MW for headphones to reach it's SPL of 86-92db due to it depending on how sensitive the headphone are. I see what your saying but it depends cause all receivers/amps use different value resistors. Sorry for my ignorance and any help is greatly appreciated!Īlso, I'm down to take pictures and post (uneducated) impressions if anybody is remotely interested
I don't even have an amp right now so that makes me especially excited to possibly tinker with these garage goodies haha. I'm guessing I need a source to feed them though so I'll probably have to find one since I'm guessing my iPod isn't going to cut it?. I've done a little googling on this but I guess I just want an opinion - are these worth playing around with my headphones with? From what I understand they were used primarily for my dads speaker system.but headphones should be fine too right? I currently don't have any high impedance headphones or anything but I'm interested to see how these might change the sound of my (admittedly very modest) headphone collection. Unrelated but also a JVC TD-W11x Stereo Double Cassette Deck. ADC Sound Shaper SS-315XĪn integrated receiver? Sony Legato Linear STR-VX4 I'm a lot younger than the average poster in this thread I assume, but thats of course because it seems like I've inherited some gear that I didn't think of previously.this stuff is currently sitting in the garage with no use on them so I think I'll play around with them pretty soon.Īn EQ? it seems like.
