Headphones-How to Connect?

Thanks to all for the information you have provided me. I have an ARC V-70 amp, ARC LS-15 preamp, Naim 3.5 CD player. Can't listen to it because the children are doing their homework. Looking at the Sennheiser 600 headphones. Do I need a separate headphone amp? If so: which one? If not : how do I conect the headphones to my equipment?

Thanks to all.

Sennheiser are high impedance ear-phones that might not be handled with CD-player or even preamp headphone jack.
In most cases head-phone amplifier is recommended for more pleasure to your ears.
Try to get Earmax or visit www.headphone.com to select an appropriate amp for yourself.
Please note that the amp has to handle 600Ohms load.
