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.
