Sennheiser HD595 with speaker terminals?


Hey everyone,

Is there any way for me to use my Sennheiser headphones with a set of speaker terminals?

I have a very low power tube amp I would like to use with my headphones but there is no headphone jack.

Is there an adapter? Would the power output of the speaker terminals blow the headphones due to lack of impedance matching?

Your best bet is to get a separate headphone amp. Look at headphone.com They are very expert at this sort of thing.

There are adapters available, one is sold by ASL (Antique Sound Labs).

You might want to shy away from headphone listening as much as possible - Doctors are warning us prolonged headphone use damages our hearing...

I have since moved to nearfield listening.
