if my ipod classic is 32ohm and i buy 16ohm earphone. Does it affect?
How does impedance really affect my sound quality?

QUOTE(ic3kacang @ Feb 25 2009, 08:45 PM) Means drive. If a 32ohm earphone compare to a 250ohm earphone, 32ohm is easier to drive even using a portable device like ipod, no amp are required. For 250ohm, an amp is needed to drive because of the high impendance, without an amp, it will be nt loud enough. |

Sometime is not make it too loud but can hear all detail and quality of the source...Amp is to improve... |

Sifus.. pardon me if im posting in the wrong section but i need some help from u guys.. Im curious is it worth it for me to invest on good quality IEM to pair with my bluetooth stereo headset ( Jabra BT3030) ? I've heard bluetooth do decrease the sound quality transmitted from its source due to its nature of being wireless and with some interference.. So hope you guys can help coz if the respond is positive i might wanna upgrade my EP630..
thanks |

Actually I prefer JBL over SP1 coz it's more balance, however, if u like bass, SP1 will definitely be ur choice coz its bass is strong. For sentimental songs, I'll choose JBL over SP1.the type of music that i like: Soundtrack (eg hans zimer) Instrumental and bass based song |

Haha, good SQ ma, but philips hmm, doesn't seem to be very popular when it comes to high end. More exp one will be Shure(1.8k?) westone UM3x/3(1.6k?)Sennheiser IE8(1.4k?) xD |

Hi everyone. Wondering if anyone can recommend me a wireless headphone for about RM900? I think the SQ of wireless is poorer but I would prefer it due to convenience and independence of movement. Greatly appreciated. Mostly playing from notebook.
