No such luck, agile one! Hooked everything up last night--Pioneer to the unbalanced analog in, PC via SPDIF, powered everything up, plugged in the HD650's, started a DVD-A on the Pioneer, and . . . nuthin! Switched over to the PC, which was already playing an APE file, and . . . nuthin again! I got no sound out of either headphone jack from either an analog or digital source. For the digitial source, I did get an indication of the sample rate on the display and s-lock did kick in, so the signal seemed to be flowing, but I couldn't hear a thing. Talk about frustrating!
I went through all the options to make sure I wasn't missing anything. As it was getting late last night, I didn't try USB or line-out.
Unless anyone has any ideas, I'm guessing I have a defective unit.
