I am thinking about getting the Xonar ST (and H6 daughter board) to connect to my external home theater amplifier (Emotiva UPA-5), speakers, and Grado SR80s (connected directly to the XT not the amplifier as it has no headphone jack). I keep reading however that there is a mechanical relay that makes a "pop" or "click" when switching audio sources between analog out and headphone out as apparently it won't do both simultaneously.
Does anyone know how bad this pop is and if it will damage my home theater speakers or my headphones if the volume is up? I switch between headphones and speakers multiple times a day depending on who is studying nearby, what I am listening too, or how late it is.
