can RME ADI 2 DAC be powerful enough to drive ...

can RME ADI 2 DAC be powerful enough to drive this?
Asked by: Van
No, The RME ADI-2 DAC FS will not offer enough power to drive these headphones. RME ADI-2 DAC FS i: The built-in headphone amplifier provides low THD values even with 32- or 16-Ohm headphones

question

Whats the difference between the LCD3 and the LCDX?
Asked by: Anonymous
From what i read and my conversation with Audeze team not much. LCD-X are a little more bright but are easily driven with a smaller amp and LCD-3 need a stronger amp and a tad less bright, which was my preference.
