Hello everyone,
Suffice to say, i cant go for studio monitors for certain reasons (neighbors with a baby etc), i must go for headphones
I will be making bassy Goa with strong lows, so i think I will buy Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro for this, as i heard its a real bass monster plus a great monitoring headphones overall. By the way I will probably pair it with a friends old M-Audio Fast Track Pro (a crappy card I know)
My questions is this. There are two versions - 80 Ohm and 240 Ohm. I heard that less Ohms will require less power but more voltage, more Ohms will require more power and less voltage, correct?
So I was googling a bit, and it seems if I get the 80 ohms, nearly any soundcard will drive it well, but for 240 Ohm version i ought to get a headphone amp? Is this true?
Any advice is appreciated, because I'm really an audio noob. If someone can explain what lower/higher impedance on headphones would entail, and if my choice of headphones is good, Thanks
EDIT: Rig is i5/z68 btw
