Head-Fier
Hello, wonderful Head-Fi:ers!
Was just curious, I've got my DT990 (250 ohms) and running them through a Xonar Essence STX II.
I have always used the "High gain (+12dB for 64~300 ohms)" setting but using low overall volume in Windows. So what I was wondering is if I should lower it to the "Normal Gain (0dB for <64 ohms)" and use an overall louder volume in Windows? I know that one should always use the lowest gain possible in correlation to the volume but just assumed that I should use the Hign gain option because it would suit my headphones better (sound quality wise).
What would you guys recommend?
Thanks in advance!
