Powering headphones

I need some help in terms of powering headphones.

I'm looking at purchasing the DT 990's 250 ohms and I'm looking for a mixer to work with a XLR microphone, the mixer I'm looking at is the behringer XENYX q502, and I'm just wondering if this mixer will have enough power to drive the 250 ohms of the DT 990's.

 

Thanks in advanced.

Probably, the dt990 isn't really that hard to drive.

Hey! New SIgnature! 

 

I'm supposedly a person on the Internet, but you'll never know if I'm human or not ;)
