How will this work with Sennheiser HD598

I use my amp with 2 sets of phones. Both are Beyer-Dynamic at 250ohms each. One open back, one closed back. The sound is great, I think you will be pleased, especially with Sennheiser open back phones.

What is the impedance and sensitivity of your 'phones? As long as impedance isn't too high and/or the sensitivity is sufficient you should be OK. This amp may sound a little better than some others in the price range, but be aware though, that this amp is not a power-house; I tried it with my Quincy Jones Q701 Phones and it barely moved them. I ended up "down-grading" to a Bravo hybrid amp that sounds fine (at least to my ears), and is abundantly more "voluminous".

I'm afraid I can't say exactly how that particular Sennheiser will sound, and it doesn't really make sense to ask. But, it is the best headphone amp for the money, probably for 3 Times the money, and there is nothing odd about the ohm rating of the Sennheiser, so it's worth the purchase.

cant really say, as much as I loved my old HD-414's I swore I would never buy another Sennheiser product after trying to deal with the company. I have owned Magneplanars and Martin Logan's for a long tome and went with Hifiman headphones. My suggestion is listening to them all! But I would recommend any Schiit product after buying my 3rd product from them. Mike and Jason know their stuff!!!

It works inline with any 3.5mm headphone jack. Plug your headphone in one end and plug the other end into your device and you then have a volume control for your headphone.

I use it with my audio system as well as headset. The quality will be no differs from what you hear in other circumstance; it depend upon the system, not the transmission. I have two units, one on my audio system; the other one is attached by Velcro to one of my headsets. I will be ordering two more

Yes, it is perfectly fine and they will love it. The only thing to keep in mind is that they are open headphones meaning that everyone around you can hear what you listen to. This is also the reason they sound so good. Even the lower end sennheisers are good such as the HD202, but the HD555 are better. Good Luck.

I'm not sure if there's a way it can actually replace your sound card. If I understand the directions right, all the USB port is for is a pass-through to the E7 dock. I have 50 ohm headphones too (HD595) and TBH it really didn't make a noticeable difference on most music. Music already sounded really good, so I'm not really sure what I was expecting with this. Louder music's sounds seems more balanced out, but that's about all I've noticed so far.

Good question. I only use it attached to phone. There are additional imputs in the base - one for PC(usb) that might work Why do you not contact sennheiser or Headsets CS at 800 432 3738 and ask them.

Not certain but I'm pretty sure it won't do anything. You'd be better off asking in a Sennheiser forum or shooting them an email. I see it like this. You could use it but it wouldn't make the senns louder. You'd have to plug the fiio into whatever transmits to your senns. It won't transmit that extra power to the sens cause it can only transmit what it normal does.

yea the HD598's are better compared to the skull candy quality-wise. Check this link out http://versus.com/en/sennheiser-hd-598-vs-skullcandy-aviator

With 3 settings for impedance variations, my guess would be that it'll drive them just fine. I've only run iems & ath-m50x's tho, fwiw.

I would think this would work, I've used Bose, Sennheiser, Sony, and Samsung headsets and they all work fine.

I have no idea. years ago, when I bought that mic, the jack did not seat all the way in a standard PC input headphone jack. I had to buy an adapter to get it to work. If you are referring to that input jack, I'd assume it fits Sennheiser equipment, otherwise what would it fit? But, you never know. I can't say one way or the other, all I used the mic for was my pc.

This dac provides good bass so any headphone will do. I use the sennheiser hd25 and those headphones sound awesome with this dac.

been wondering the same thing myself. The reviews for the HD428 have been marginally better. Honestly it looks like you will be immensely happy with either =P. But if money is an issue, keep in mind that the HD 428s are 45% off and the HD448s are only 24%here is sennheiser's website with the HD 428, 438 and the 448 for more info:http://www.sennheiserusa.com/private_headphones_mid-size-portables

They work like any other headphones, As long as it has a port for it they will work :)

It accepts both balanced and unbalanced audio inputs, so it will work with everything :)I've started with a simple jack output from my notebook, then moved to balanced with external card.

try one in the audio and one in the video. Sennheiser, you should be able to answer this question. Or, ask a local tech person.
