Help with getting the right behr dynamics dt990 ohms model? And yes I read the sticky
I am currently using v moda m100 on my desktop and I use it for primarily gaming such as Fallout 4, Mass Effect, The Witcher 3, etc. I enjoy being immersed in the game world alongside having great comfort. However, the vmodas aren't best for comfort so I have found myself a worthy successor, the behyrdynamics DT990, which has great comfort and sound that emphasizes lows and highs just how I like. I will also only be using it for my desktop, not my mobile devices, but I think my motherboard probably only does 32 ohms headphones like most average motherboards.
The problem now is that there is the option for 32 ohm, 250 ohm, and 600 ohm. From what I have garnered online, the 250 ohm and 600 ohm is better and has tighter bass and such (according to guides like http://www.head-fi.org/t/513393/guide-sonic-differences-between-dt770-dt990-models-more).
As great as those higher ohm versions sound, buying an amp costs significantly more money and takes up space on my desk. I am an average joe and I don't know if I can hear differences between headphones the way audiophiles can expertly do so I guess I am a total noob who doesn't really know much.
I guess what I am getting at is.... are there HUGE differences between the 32 ohm version and the other 2 ohm versions? Of course I would prefer to save money and buy the 32 ohm version but if the quality of the 32 ohm pair is so much worse than the other 2 variants (as said in this article and video http://www.innerfidelity.com/content/comparison-beyerdynamic-dt-880-32-ohm-dt-880-250-ohm-and-dt-880-600-ohm-headphones), I suppose I am willing to shell out the money.
TL;DR: for an average noob gaming joe like me, are the differences between the 32 ohm and the 250 and 600 ohm variants of the dt990 going to be audibly big enough for me to have to go ahead and for sure buy the higher ohm one plus an amp?
Thanks in advance guys
