headphone issue

Post by Gaslight_Twilights »

I seem to be missing the headphone source module :( Does anyone have it? Also while we're at it, the volume on my headphones is really low even with the headphone volume on Xite turned up all the way. Anyone have any input on that? Thanks in advance :D

volume, well, what is connected to the headphone dest? what is it's level? what is the headphone's impedance?

Hehe, well, it's just a pair of crappy Beyer dynamic Dt 770 pro's. 80 ohms. So, I guess there's my answer lol

that's not especially high impedance. 600ohms would be very high. low impedance headphones are in the 20-30ohm range, so 80 ohms is still pretty low. whatever is feeding the headphone jack could probably have gain added.
