Thanks for your tips.

Searching for the Beyer DT770 seems to bring up a wide range of prices
and a variety of different versions.

The official site shows a 80 ohm and a 250 ohm model, but I don't see
600 ohm anywhere.

Can you clarify this?

The AKGs claim 62 ohm - does that make them easier to drive with a
dedicated headphone amp?

What is the advantage of the higher impedance which seems to be
preferred in the more expensive phones? The extra wire in the voice coil
must have mass implications.
