what would I set the back settings to onGain: 1.5 (3db) or 6 (15.6db), selectable via rear switch.
Which ever one gives you the most usable range of volume with, min to max.

Is dac variable output worse than fixed?
I'm not up on this stuff but from what I can see the Ido is a headphone amp 2v out with built in dac, if it's output is to low for the 38ohm 89db he500's, the get a $99 Schiit Magni 2 much more powerfull it's output impedance is .2ohm,
Gain: 1.5 (3db) or 6 (15.6db), selectable via rear switch. And will give 1.2watts into the He500's 32ohm load. Leave the Ido up full. http://schiit.com/products/magni-2 Cheers George |
