iAudio_rocks 0 Report post Posted October 8, 2006 does the 716 require a powerful source? i remember reading about difference ohm things when switching between the 2 modes? amping is not an option here, unless there one small enough to shove into my jeans pocket Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

metrablue 0 Report post Posted October 8, 2006 (edited) izzit?? i din.. haha noob.. i've always have the impression that armature drivers require minimum current to drive... so theoretically a amp is unnecessary unless u wanna colour ur sound.. and also armature drivers benefit v minimal frm burning in... correct me if im wrong thou... would like to learn more...
