I am rather new to audio components and was wondering why would they put the gain switch on the bottom of the Singxer SA-1?

Also, when do you use the impedance switch and when do you use the gain switch( on the bottom)?

I believe that how understand when to switch gain might be wrong. I believe when the headphones are lower in efficiency, you switch to the higher gain? If this is true, why would they make this be located on the bottom and 4 separate switches where all other puts it on the front?

I read the manual but still do not know when to use the impedance switch? I get that the headphones should be at least 8X higher impedance and I thought more is better.

why would you want to increase output impedance? How does the sound get affected by increasing or lowering it?
