There's also something like this if you want to use balanced out on both your speakers and 789 https://www.ebay.com/itm/Little-Bea...erter-Audio-Selector-Splitter-UK/293052474199
I see.The speakers got the amp build into itself. So I have to manually switch off both speakers everytime I want to use my headphone lol
Sounds like it should work. The downside is that the RME headphone op amps will be ahead of the speaker amps. I expect you will hear some compromise.As @Phoniac suggested
I could use my RME-ADI 2 DAC Phone out either 1/4 inch or 3.5mm to give my speakers the needed signal and use the remote to switch in between.
Good day guys!
I have recently bought a set of Massdrop THX AAA 789 to pair with my RME-ADI 2 DAC for the balance output but now I'm facing a problem.
As previously I'm using RME-ADI 2 DAC to feed my JBL LSR305 via Balance XLR out, now with my new addition THX AAA 789 I'm running it with RME Unbalance RCA Out.
So when I'm using my THX AAA 789 I can't mute my speakers and both my headphone and speaker plays together!
Any idea to mute my speakers other then physically switching the power off?

That looks good. Now I know you can set different volumes according to input (USB, Optical) but can you set different volumes according to output? I like to keep my XLR connection to my THX on fixed volume and the output of my RCA connection to my Adams on variable so I can control the speakers volume.Something like this might work, I have other similar products and they work great, no sound degradation : https://www.amazon.com/Nobsound-Aud...or/dp/B07R1XCNHG?ref_=bl_dp_s_web_14493203011
I see.

In fact that's an advantage. Due to the very low output impedance of only 0.1 ohms you could use unshielded cable to your amplifier - it would still work. IMO an external controller, no matter if passive or active, will have more potential to degrade the sound than the additional 'headphone op amps'.
Either situation is a compromise due to added circuitry. Whether the compromise is acceptable depends on how resolving the system and the listener's tolerance for such things. Running my main system through a headphone amp would be quite intolerable because it would definitely degrade the sound. YMMV.In fact that's an advantage.

Yes to both. You're gonna need either a pair of RCA cable or XLR cable depending on your speakers, and a Type-C to USB B cable or a USB Type-C male to USB A female OTG adapter (easier to come by) that then connects to the supplied USB cable for your S9.hello,
I am not much audiophil but i like listen good quality sound. I have Audeze LCD-2. I am planning to buy RME-ADI-2. Can someone guide me for following-
1) Apart from listening through my headphone (LCD-2), can we attach external bookshelf speaker to RMEADI-2?
2) Can I attach my smartphone (samsung S9) ?
