Yeah! A pair of DT770 @ 250ohms is our primary wired headphones. They work very good with Tangara, and with most other devices.
The effect of headphone impedance on audio quality is generally a bit overstated IMO, but we tried to design Tangara's output stage such that unusually high impedances don't cause any issues with frequency response. You may want to watch out for the sensitivity of some higher-end headphones (e.g. fancy planars), but in general Tangara also has enough output power that these don't tend to be *too* problematic.
