Does anyone have the O2/ODAC combo and the portable O2 (with batteries)? Is there a difference in the power output ? I recall reading that the gain on O2 with batteries is limited by the maximum voltage of the batteries.
Currently with the O2/ODAC driving my beyer T1 on 2.5x gain, the dial is usually at 12 o'clock or 1 o'clock, and 3 o'clock on softer tracks (recorded in 1990s? like my Queen's Greatest Hits 1993 Remaster).
Will the O2 with batteries still drive the beyer T1 (or HD 600, DT 990/600) properly?
Thank you.
The O2 in itself is still in the same casing as the O2/ODAC combo. The difference here is that the ODAC chip takes the place of the dual 9V battery placements.
The two 9V batteries should give you more or less the same performance as it would plugged into a wall. Don't expect a long battery span though.
