Which should I get? Which will provide me with the most sonic fidelity?

And please, please someone respond! I would greatly appreciate your opinions!

You can't go wrong. I bought the DT48 200 ohm and love them. The lower number ohm headphones I have, Sony MDR 7509HD, are so easy to drive that I find I am using them at the start of the reostat where there are issues on most devices; balance problems, static. The DT48 200 ohm are easy to drive but need enough juice that the volume control should not be a problem. I switch to my other phones when I need a bass hit, DT150 200 ohm, however, the more I compare sound the more I use the DT48: near perfect treble, midrange and midbass so they do have superior sonic fidelity. They are very comfortable too after a week or so. The sound changes quite a bit depending on where they rest on your head: much more than the other headphones I have tried. This is not a bad thing, you just shift them around to see how good the sound can get.

with a tube amp I like my 200's.  with a SS amp my 25's.

I have the 200 ohm one. With the use of Woo Audio 2, it drives my 200 ohm one great. and in general, with the one in higher impedance, the sound are smoother and more detailed.

I want to try the dt48e. It's down to the impedance choice. I've read most people like the 25 ohm. I'm using a Nuforce Icon Hdp optical from a MacBook Pro. 200 or 25 Ohm? Anyone? One fellow head fire liked his 25 ohm with solid state amps, but the 200 with tube amps. Thanks!
