Cool, sorry I didn't mean they looked shoddily built, just was a bit sketched out by the shipping times and stuff. How long did you wait to receive yours? Perhaps I will place an order soon!


Shipping time was only 1-2 weeks for me. Not bad for free delivery from China.

Also they'll make any custom length or configuration you'd like.

Cheers

Cool! Thanks for letting me know!

I'd like to thank LH Labs & Head-Fi for making it easy to part with $300. And a special thanks out to Amazon Prime for making the results arrive in just a day (tomorrow).
 
Thanks for making it easy to blow money I shouldn't be spending!

ok sounds amazing to my Dunu DN 2000J's using the 100mw output setting. Now on my desktop with the HD600's at the 1000mw output setting I am at full volume and it sounds great but I feel like I want it up a notch or more volume-wise. That can't be right - the HD 600's should be able to have some more volume headroom no?

Have you tried through the balanced out?

I would think balanced out should have enough headroom.

Let us know!

That does give me a bit more headroom. Thanks. But the mid-bass sounds a bit distorted vs the Single ended output. Hmmm.
 
What is it you are not supposed to plug into the balanced output? Just not to have headphones plugged into both outputs at once?

Whoa, hold on there! You need a 3.5mm TRRS plug into an appropriate balanced headphone termination for the balanced output. Plugging in directly risks damaging gear as I understand it. The adapters are available from Luna Shops and Amazon. I have nothing and the Amazon one seems better, the Luna Shops one works fine, but is an extremely tight fit for the headphones XLR plug. Apologies for not reiterating that advice from the manual, I will certainly mention it from now on with people asking after balanced out.

I thought I needed something, thanks.  This look good:

Does anyone have any experience using the single-ended or balanced output of the GOV2 into an external amplifier? How did it compare to using the internal amp?
 
Thanks

I can't seem to find the TRRS plug on LunaShops that this unit needs for using the balanced output. can anyone link me to it?

You may be putting too many keywords into the search. Try just: 3.5mm trrs
 
Also, I'm assuming people aren't posting the link for a reason?

I'm on mobile and at work here, otherwise I'd grab the link.
