Sry for the bump of this old thread but seems pointless to create a new one.
I am looking to buy a new set of headphones from beyer, yet am slightly confused about the ohm rating. From memory i think it has something to do with the equipment you are interfacing with yet i will be using mine on a standard Hi-Fi amp. Am i right in thinking i should be going for about 16ohm? Or am i able to go higher....say 80 ohm like the Beyer 770s without needing more eqipment with more voltage?

All input is greatly appreciated, cheers guys.
