Headphone difference Jolly Rogers vs Gray Ghost

Hello,I was hoping to get a better understanding on headphone impedance and the effects of sound quality and power draw. I had a set of Gray Ghost I sold 2 years ago and they have as stated on Detector Pro's website 150 ohms nominal, I ordered a set of Jolly Rogers which may arrive today and that have a impedance of 16 ohms nominal,what's the difference? I'm using them on a Cibola...

Typically you want to match the impedance of your headphones to the machine you are connecting them too. If you use a lower impedance headphone on a higher impedance device you may experience lower volume. All you can do is try them out though because some have no problems doing it.
