Hi there,
I have an old (20 years) Vieta VR610 Digital A/V Receiver with the Neo 10 6:1 surround set that I bought in Spain. Whilst not high end audio, Vieta gear was pretty good bang for your buck at the time. The amp would have been around €500 and the surround set about the same.
I have been wanting to get hold of a pair of planar magnetic headphones and was planning to set up the Vieta vr610 via optical line to my Xbox one, for CDs and my PC for my FLAC files on HDD.
routerlogin I was told to check the amps impedance to see if it would be compatible with the planar headphones. The impedance of the headphones is 37 ohms but I have no idea what the output impedance of the amp is. I cant find the instruction manual and I have found no trace online, though no surprise due to its age, I have even emailed Vieta but with no response.
Is there any way to find out output impedance?
I would also be interested to know what DAC the vr610 has.
I was also thinking of getting hold of a more portable 192.168.0.1 unit to drive the headphones in other rooms than the living room like the Fiio K5 Pro. Could this be used as a DAC/preamp for the Vieta?
Any advice is welcome.
