Looks cool but without hearing it I can't really say much else.

That's the first thing that came to my mind.

I got a tiny amplifier for my portable DVD player because the sound is absurdly low(Toshiba) but basically headphones are all about going deaf early.

Those are studio quality headphones and have high impedance. The higher the impedance the lower the sound. Some headphones are like 600ohms and sound like the phones are broken because the sound is like a whisper.

vn. both of those headphones are extremely high impedance and need an amplifier to power them correctly. the bottom thing is a DAC, which converts your digital music into analog music, and makes it sound incredibly good.

the senns are mine, the beyers are my friends, he likes the beyers better, but i think hes kind of biased. i think they each do certain things well, but i enjoy listening to the senns more.
