I have found most high impedance headphones sound better with OTL tube amps. i own the T1 a 600 ohm and have had the Sennheiser HD800 both high impedance and both worked best out of my Tube OTL CSP-2. Low impedance can generally work better with transformer based tube amps and solid state amps.The Decware CSP-2 was designed around Beyerdynamic headphones.
