Hi All, wondering whether connecting 32-ohm Philips SHP9500 headphones that I normally use directly to the RCA output of E30 is OK, or at least safe for both devices? I recall seeing a response early in this thread that E30 won't burn from direct HP connection (IIRC their impedance was about the same), but if sound quality still suffers this way could anyone please explain in what ways exactly? The only nuisance I've come across so far is having to use RC to reduce the volume when playing DSD with Foobar2000 (my E30 has been in its default mode since new, i.e. pre-amp I suppose) as it's way too loud at zero attenuation.
P.S. I do realize that the SHP9500 is probably way not enough to enjoy E30 sound properly but it's a temporary setup anyway (decent speakers are in my holiday home far away), so I decided against any expensive HPs and even preferred them over the Fidelity X2HR (unlike some critics of the SHP9500 I don't lack the bass with them at all, at least with the type of music I usually listen to).
