High impedance headphone....

[rickyhgarcia]

Hi all....just asking for headphone recommendations for an amp I am about to get. I am getting a Decware CSP3 preamp, that also serves as a tube headphone amp. Decware specifically indicates that planar headphones would not work with this amp. Decware recommends dynamic headphones with impedance between 80 and 600 ohms.

Any suggestions?

The HD 800S should do well with high impedance Tube amps.

What is your headphone budget?

Budget would be $750 to $1500...over the ears....

HD800S it is then ... maybe 2nd hand ?
DT1990 PRO (original) with filter ?
HD550
NDH30
DT880-600
R70xa

should all fall (well) within your budget.

Beyerdynamic DT 880 600-Ohm (which I own), good budget ($150?) friendly option for use with a tube amp
