Doesnt affect. Impedance means hw hard is the earphone to be driven. The lower the better to drive.

sorry but what does driven mean?

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.

so drive it means burn it?
