Thanks for
I think you're right about the line out stuff. It is very confusing on the manual. I'm sure i didn't set the voltage correctly. PS what is the recommended voltage to set?
I was also told i may need to set the AV receiver to direct mode to get rid of any DSP the AV receiver may add extra distortion. Is that right?
Haven't tried the HD800s with my alphas yet but will definitely let you know the synergy when i try it later
Thanks for the reply. Yeah i have alot of DSD and high quality FLAC files that i want to play.I use the audioquest evergreen 3.5mm to rca into a pioneer elite receiver that is real similar to your receiver and it sounds amazing. I'm playing albums purchased on hdtracks and master quality streamed from tidal. Make sure you are enabling line out properly. You have to turn it on in the menu and then turn the volume wheel to get the volume screen to come on, then click where it says line out on the volume screen and select ok. Then the volume will be fixed at the selected line out voltage. It should sound great unless there is some weird setting in the reciever. It should be set to analogue for that imput or try another imput. Also make sure you are playing high quality files. I see you have the sennheiser 800s's. How are they with the kann alpha? I might get a pair.
