Has anyone tried to run their Hifiman HE-6 headphones from the speaker taps of their RM10?
These are unlike other headphones out there (orthodynamic) and are the most inefficient headphones currently in production. Most people have found they sound very poor when trying to use them from a regular headphone jack, even from a high quality headphone amplifier because they are so inefficient. So people are reporting they are running these off of 100 Watt solid-state amp speaker taps with excellent results.
The recommendation by Hifiman is that the amp should ideally output 5 to 12 watts into a 50 Ohm load.
Before going down this path, I'm curious how well the RM10 can handle such a load off the 8 Ohm taps and how much wattage it would produce. Would the distortion be higher?
