Hi,
Sorry if this has been asked multiple times before, but I am wondering...
I just got a "balanced cable" so I can connect my headphones to the Balanced output of my HP amplifier.
According to specs, the output power is about thrice what it is with 6.35mm jack (240mW@300Ohm versus 72mW@300Ohm for 6.35)
So I expected to get undecent volume at same setting (about 70%).
But what I got is... NOTHING. Volume is exactly the same with XLR 4 pins and Jack 6.35mm.
Is this normal ? Can the difference only be heard at full volume ? Or is the 70% volume setting not the same on 6.35mm and on Balaced 4-Pin XLR ?
If you'd have an answer I'd be a taker
Regards.
