Im using older AKG 340 phones, which are electrostatic/dynamic, and everybody says hard to drive. My Preamp is the McIntosh C15, and the headphone amp can handle these phones quite nicely, and would blow my ears off if I cranked it very hard. SO, try using your headphone amp and see what it will do--you might be surprised!
Newbie question - dedicated headphone amp or is my McIntosh MA352 sufficient
Hi forum members,
I recently purchased the Hifiman HE1000 V2 headphones. I currently own the McIntosh Ma352. Is the headphone amp on this unit sufficient bring out the characteristic sound of this headphone or am I better served buying a dedicated headphone amp? I appreciate your input.
