Headphones come in variety of Impedance (or *Nominal* Impedance values). Some manufacturers like Beyerdynamic have 2-3 different impedances for the same model, which they list for different sources.

So the question is, how to get the correct impedance for your source? And how to check which amp to get ?

Here is the answer
