I was just running a pair of 600 ohm Beyer DT880s through a Headroom "The Max" amplifier and noticed that I have to turn it up almost all the way to get even moderate volume out of it. My HD800s were considerably louder. Does this indicate that the Headroom is not putting out enough to drive 600 ohm cans well? I can't find relevant specs on the amp, unfortunately. It was a $1500 amp in 2001, so my assumption was that it would drive anything well, but it would not be the first time I have been wrong about something.

Makes me think I have not heard the DT880s shown to their full advantage-- any suggestions re: a SS amp that will drive these well? Will the same amp drive the HD800s equally well?
Thanks!
