Quick question regards open back headphones. I'm looking at the Sennheiser HD650, Beyerdynamic T90 & the Grado SR325e. My music source will be the Marantz CD6005, my question is will my cd player be able to drive the headphones I'm enquiry about.

Regards the headphone output on my cd player, the Marantzcd6005 is a fully discrete headphone amplifier, the jack is compatible with audiophile and studio headphone types. Unfortunately I don't own an amplifier, i basically bought the Marantz for headphone use, My main music source is the Ruark R4 but the headphone output is terrible. I see you also have a pair of BeoPlay's H6, how do they perform against your other headphones? I really like my BeoPlay's & they perform well with my cd player, I would like to buy some open back headphones for home use with the Marantz if possible.
The Sennheiser HD650 was my top choice & The Grado's was really a last option due to the design.
