What is the effect of impedance on headphone sound quality? I agree that just making some headphones high impedance isn't a catch-all to make them good headphones. But does the high-impedance contribute to superior headphones creating high fidelity sound? |

What is the effect of impedance on headphone sound quality? Can you explain in what way high impedance headphones are superior? Why not just have low-impedance headphones with an amplifier? |

What is the effect of impedance on headphone sound quality? I think the key to my question lies in this part: "expect to be run from higher-voltage professional/amplified equipment". Everywhere I look, people say high impedance headphones are that way to match the high voltage amplifiers, and the amplifier people say they provide high voltage to power your high impedance headphones! It seems that the loop needs to stop somewhere, and it appears to me that there is a reasoning behind creating pro headphones with high impedance from 250-600 ohms. |
