I'm not sure why, or if I'm even using it right, but the active ground mode seems like it really expands the soundstage and detail of various headphones and IEMS I've used on it. Of course you lose some volume when you apply it, but I A/B tested several times with several pairs and I prefer the Active Ground every time. To give more detail, I am using 2.2mm balanced cables with all headphones and IEMS using these settings on my 5K with 3.0.4. I also run these with 20 band PEQ and hybrid fast roll-off filter.
Anyone know exactly what the Active Ground is doing? Is this its intended use? Why does it make all my sets sound much more alive?
