I see in the spec sheet that this only states 32 ohm , will it handle anything higher, such as 300 Ohm HD600 Sens? I have a Fiio X3 now and it drives 300 ohms just fine.

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.

FiiO E6 handles 32 to 64 ohm headphones quite well. I use it with a FiiO L9L line out dock for IPhone and another line out dock for Sony. I am not familiar with your devices but the E6 more than amply boosts and improves the line-out signals from my MP3s. Clarity and musicality vastly improve. I hardly use the output jack of Apple anymore after hearing what the E6 can do. Even the Sony, which has a better headphone output and a graphic equalizer benefits from the E6 boost. Good Luck!!

I may not be the best one to answer this question because I only use mine as a preamp. The reason for this is that I have 4 ohm speakers. This unit drives 6 & 8 ohm speakers. So I use the preamp outputs to go to a separate power amplifier. All of this aside, i very much like the sound I get. I listen to everything from pipe organ to rock and it all sounds top shelf!

Higher ohms are always compatible. As long as you stay above 2 per channel or 4 bridged you'll be fine with this amp.

2 ohm, I have dual 12s both running 2 ohms with a 3000 watt amp, sounds amazing and I'm still breaking it in, but 2 ohm in my eyes is for more than one sub to divi the power more equally

I would say no. The comments I've read (on head-fi) say that to get decent output out of high-impedance cans you'll have to use something more powerful. If going the vacuum route, that might be the Schiit Lyr or Asgard 2. I am using my Valhalla with 32 ohm headphones so can't comment on how it sounds with 600 ohm headphones connected.

The Beyerdynamic web site shows 250 ohm. See the linked spec sheet. All I know is these cans are hard to drive. I finally broke down and bought a Beyerdynamic A1 amp to push these. Its not the volume that is the problem; its power needed to push these cans to accurate resolution. These are much more finicky than my AKGs or Sennheiser headphones.http://north-america.beyerdynamic.com/shop/media//datenblaetter/DAT_T90_EN.pdf

No sorry I cannot answer that question, I will tell you that you will not be disappointed with there performance, I drive 2 of them with the pyle hybrid 3000 watt amp, which actually put out about 500 watts at 4 ohms, and the sound great, actually the amp fall short of being able to deliver what they can handle

I left mine at 8 ohms because it had plenty of power at 8 ohms for me, but you can easily change the receiver impedance to 6 ohms if you want to. Download the Yamaha manual for the receiver from their site and it will show you how...it's fairly simple.

I have a pair of vintage W60E Wharfedale speakers which are 83 db, so not very sensitive. There is no hiss at all using the Mini-X. I use a Cambridge DacMagic as a preamp. The 50watts is perfect for the Wharfedales and plays jazz and classical perfectly. I highly recommend the amp.

Not at all. I am running my system also through Kenwood amps at 4ohms. The sound is clean and responsive.

Yes it does. It will handle to 3.5 ohms but not an ohm less. so don't parallel your speakers, series them. Then you will not have to worry since it will handle up through 16 ohms.

Hello NebTheWeb, This receiver is capable of driving 6 ohms speakers. I use a set of Totem Dreamcatcher (4 ohms) and the receiver is behaving great.

I have an alpine mrv-m500 amp that gives 500 RMS at 2 ohms. It still hits hard and sounds great. But as long as the amp can handle a 2 ohm load and has at least 600 RMS your fine I would check out some amps on here that have those specs and I only have one sub not two!!!

Thang:Again thank you for your helpful response. I will now shop for a sub, and hopefully complete my system soon. It is a more difficult task than I first thought.I have the Bose single cube speakers that I plan to use, but I am unable to determine the ohm rating of these speakers. Can you assist me with this. I have been studying the 806 manual and the speaker ohm rating is one entry that needs to be input by me. Hopefully I will be able to get things up and running soon. Thanks.Charles

No because it's going to be way, way too much power for the 50ohm HE-300. I'd recommend a Fiio E17 Alpen, it's not a tube amp but sounds great & has a DAC built in. The Valhalla is a fantastic, clear sounding amp that won't really color or warm the sound as you'd expect from a tube amp. I paired them with 300ohm HD 650's (w the upgraded Equinox cable) and I thought it was a near perfect match.

No it only hits 300 maxed out only good for mids and highs for a cheap but powerful amp try audiopipe
