I am sorry for being such a newbie in this field, however - will the qualities of the headphones be obvious, even with a insufficent AMP? Like, will I know for a fact, that "yes, i really dig the sound, however I know for a fact that I need a better AMP"? Sorry if my thoughts are confusing, trying my best to put it into words :D

Oh no problem. I am absolutely no expert. If you max out the volume of the amp and the headphones are only moderately loud, you may want to get a more powerful amp.

As for the qualities, when I underpower a set of headphones, It is hard for me to really hear definition. Those 560s will surprise you with how fun they sound. Great Soundstage and way more low end than I expected from open backs.
