My new Desktop Amp arrived today which I love so far. Beautiful piece of gear. Since my last home amp was an Arietta- a much simpler device I have a few questions about recommendations for gain with certain HPs. Now before you say just listen for yourself and make your own decisions I have tried this but the increase in volume between the LOW / MEDIUM / HIGH gain make it almost impossible to do this with any consistency. In fact with Grados going from low to med without adjusting volume hurts my ears. So all this makes it difficult to get a real accurate idea. So I was hoping some who have had this amp for awhile and perhaps more technical than I- could give some recommendations on where the gain should be for the following HPs. I realize my MMV but I am interested in your opinion.
The phones I will use mostly with the amp are Grado RS1, Denon D2000, Senn HD650 and Ultrasone 780. I realize the gain will change between these.
Thanks in advance for any recommendations. BTW this is the Desktop amp with home module (NOT max).
