I am curious to know if a headphone amp would run two 106db tweeters? does anyone know or have tried this? I want to tri amp my setup and need an amp for the tweeters...
Follow Ups:
Some will and some won't. Look at the output impedance of the amplifier (look for 8 Ohms or less) and the power available (look for at least 1000mW).
Many amps that will drive power hungry planar headphones won't have any problems driving those tweeters of yours, but an amp designed to drive high impedance headphones may not be such a stellar choice.
Most headphone amps produce less than 1 watt and are designed for impedances much higher than the typical 4 ohm tweeter. Their power supplies will not be able to successfully drive the speaker without clipping. Will you get sound? Yes. Will you like it? No
I married the perfect woman. The downside is everything that goes wrong is my fault.
Thanks for the reply, I think I found the perfect 3.5 watt amp. BTW the tweeters are 8 ohms if that makes a difference...
There are headphone amps that would work, like the micro Zotl 2.
