How much impedance can a phone handle?

Hello guys!

 

I'm thinking of buying a pair of DT770 pro's 80 Ohm to use with my phone and laptop.

They'll be replacing my Marshall Major II because they become quite uncomfortable after 4-5 hours of continuous use, which is a daily scenario.

But i'm worried if my phone (Honor 7) will be able to drive them.

 

For comparison: the Marshall headphones are 60 Ohm and are perfect at about a third of the volume slider and really hurt at the maximum volume.

I know it's only 20 Ohm but I'm just asking to make sure :)

 

Thanks a lot!

Laptops: Acer VN7-592G (I5-6300HQ, 960m), Lenovo P43s

Phones: LG V30, Samsung S10

Speakers: 2 ALR Jordan 3M's (120W each)

Amplifier: SMSL SA-98E

Headphones: Sony WH-1000XM3, Sennheiser Momentum

Should be fine, if it's only 20 ohm more. You would still be able to get decent volume I think

It will just be quieter, depending on sensitivity.

well at infinity, they make no noise. So infinity -1
