I have an O2 amplifier and I have some questions:
- Is the standard gain(2.5x , 6.5x) the highest gain possible with O2 ?
- how do I know if my O2 is set to the standard gain without looking at the PCB ?
How about these headphones:
AKG K702,
DT990 Pro 250 ohms
Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee,
Sony MA900,
Hifiman HE-400,
Audio Technica AD900x,
Fostex T50RPMK3,
Philips Fidelio X2HR,
Grado SR225i.
Also, Do these headphones play well with other amps with 10Ω output impedance ? Like Sabaj PHA2 and...
I am looking to buy the Creative GC7 but the output impedance is 10Ω, Should I worry about this ? I want to pair the following headphones with it(through headphone out jack):
M-Audio Q40,
Monoprice Modern Retro,
KOSS Prodj200,
Creative Aurvana Live! SE,
Creative Aurvana Live! 2,
Sennheiser PX...
Which DAC has the better measurement ? The measurements that were posted here at ASR show that the E30II/lite have some jitter problems through optical-in which are not audible...whereas the SMSL SU1 does not have this problem....
Should I worry about this ?
Which one would you personally go...
JDS Labs:
I guess JDS labs meant only for "extended duration" and under "heavy loads" I need to get a new power adapter...otherwise I am ok ? I will use the unit(O2) max 2 hours per session.
So I recently purchased an O2 headphone amplifier that comes with a WAU12-200 power supply.
Some quotes from NwAvGuy's blog:
Now I have more powerful amps, but I just wanna make my O2 compatible with all my headphones. The only planars I have are the HE-400 , T50RP MK3 and I have plans to...
For a 600ohms headphone I recommend the Lake People G109-S ... I don't know if it is still available to purchase though...
Edit: Lake People G103-S works too.
Alright, I think my priority is the O2 amplifier now, Since I have a bunch of lower impedance everyday headphones that I want to use while gaming and the fact that O2 has 0.5ohm output impedance.
Does the O2 spec better than Sabaj PHA2 ?
Is the Mayflower version of O2 set to medium or standard...
I want to use the 3.5mm out on Sabaj PHA2 with the following headphones:
Jvc HAS160
Sony MDRZX110
Koss KSC75/35
CAL! SE & 2
Sen PX100-II
what do you think ?
so a series resistor doesn't affect the output impedance ? What would you guess the output impedance is for the 3.5mm headphone out on PHA2 ?
and you are saying the 6.5mm output on PHA2 has the same output impedance as A20d ? What is A20d's output impedance ?
Can I input 3Vrms via RCA with these DACS:?
Creative X7
Creative G6
SMSL SU1
Atom DAC+
Zorloo ZuperDAC
also, do these DACs pair well with the following amps ?
Schiit heresy
SMSL SP200
Sabaj PHA2
Douk U3 mini
