Fiio E9/E7 advice

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 

After some searching I can not seem to find the answer.

 

Just got this combo and I use HD600 and HD650

 

Should gain switch be in the UP position?

 

And should I use the 6.3mm or the 3.5mm socket?

 

Cheers

up for high impedance headphones.

Down for low impedance headphones

Yes the manual tells me that, but I was wondering which should I use for my 650 (I assume UP)

 

I have also read the 3.5mm and 6.3mm output are different, again what is best for my cans

I'm going to "guess" that low impedance is around 65-Ohms or less

And your headphones are 300-Ohms.

 

The small 1/8 (3.5mm) headphone jack is minus 5 db compared to the 1/4 (6.35mm)

for the same volume condition.
