I have a pair of hd650 powered by a vali 2 and a modi 3 DAC that I’ve been enjoying immensely for over a year now.
When I’m really listening to music I have iTunes and windows at 100% volume and use the vali 2 to set the volume. Based on what I’ve read, this is the preferred way of setting up a signal chain.
However, if I want to listen at lower volumes while I’m working I run into the issue of a channel imbalance because the volume is too low on my Vali 2. Does anyone know if it matters how I go about adjusting the volume levels of Windows and iTunes? Also, is this a problem I’d run into with most amps? Or would I have better luck with something different?
