### Do Kiwi Ears headphones need an amp?

Worked out for 110 dB peaks from the impedance and sensitivity each review lists. A phone jack or any dongle is enough for the Atheia. The sensitivity figure for the Orchestra Lite does not say whether it is per milliwatt or per volt, and the answer lands in a different class depending on which. Check your own source in the [headphone power calculator](https://theaudiostuff.com/tools/headphone-power-calculator/).
