The Limiter is adaptive. It’s limiting to a Maximum output of approx. 450mV @16Ohms at the Headphone Amp. However, it is affected by the individual Impedance of the headphones used and the efficiency of the headphones drivers.
 
Interesting to note: The impedance of the IE 4, IE 400 PRO, IE 500 PRO, are all 16 ohms
