Alex But don't you change the output resistor for suitability for a impedance headphone?

Allan I am simply posting an alternative viewpoint to that of the other link. IIRC, Frans also discussed this subject in a similar thread. It may be worth searching out ? Alex

I don't want to get bogged down myself in this one, as despite what the EEs like Elias and Frans say, others will drag out stuff from HeadFi threads etc. usually about some commercial operation that sells balanced headphone cables etc.claiming to offer proof that balanced sounds better.

Yeah. If it doesn't time out due to a failure to get a result in a predetermined amount of time, it often fails to find worthwhile results. I had a quick look for the thread that Frans was involved in too. Alex
