I'm on high gain at 9 o'clock.@ProfFalkin sorry about the car. That's never fun
Question = what volume are you typically listening to? I'm around low gain with the marker on the volume wheel right at noon.
Interestingly when I go back and forth from the jds, also set at low gain around noon (50% mark) the jds sounds louder. This is not very scientific I admit, but given that the lyr 3 puts out 6 watts and the jds puts out 1.1 watts at 32 pounds, that just seems wrong. The lyr should be noticeably louder
I have the built in multibit. Someone noted that the multibit card has lower voltage output to the amp section vs an external dac. Is that true? Seems that would have the effect of reducing the amps power by feeding it lower voltage??
Yes, I think the internal multi-bit card uses 1.5 volt to the amplifier. The volume is the same on the multi bit card as it was on a base Modi 2 I borrowed, which is also 1.5v out. The Modi 2 MB (which is what I use) is 2V, and is louder at the same volume knob setting.
