Barry,

Normally for audio, the impedance is not a problem. It is the voltage that matters. The output of the headphone amplifier is a low impedance source which will drive loads of varying impedance. Compare with plugging an appliance into a household AC receptacle - The power company provides a low impedance source, and the power transferred depends on the impedance of the appliance that you plug into the receptacle.

Is there an acceptable range of headphone impedance for the K3/K3s?

I've got some 300-ohm headphones and wondering if the impedance alone
makes them a poor choice for my K3s?
