Derek H Posted September 15, 2020 Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 Anyone know the ideal mate for an R1a? For example, Sennheiser offers some headsets with the option of 100 or 600 ohms. Which will sounds better with lower noise floor with an R1a? Thanks! d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryF Posted September 15, 2020 Report Share Posted September 15, 2020 Ideal power match is 50 Ohms but they will safely drive any load from 8 Ohms up. I recommend the 100 Ohm phones as the 600 Ohm phones may be a little shy on maximum level in noisy environments. Also, you can easily decrease the sensitivity of the 100 Ohm phones with a 100 to 200 Ohm series resistor (s) in the connector. You can't easily increase the sensitivity of the 600 Ohm phones except with a bulky (impractical) transformer Best Regards, Larry Fisher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
