It is possible to wind the headphone output up from 0 db to +4db 36857 That makes my cheap headphones much more useable. (Not that I will be using them.) I plugged in my Sennheiser HD25 phones - commonly used by audio pros. Interestingly they are slightly more sensitive than my cheapies. I am still, however, using 90%+ on the player volume. It's not a bad sound out of the headphone socket when using the internal Pi Dac which I don't suppose was ever meant for anything beyond hobby project sounds. As said previously, a useful evolution would be the sort of hybrid 3.5mm jack that exports analogue sounds and optical output for a DAC. My next development will be to swap the Beresford 7510 DAC I have here in Southampton for the Caiman (7520) I have in Nicosia which has a USB input. I can then move the Pi into the lounge and discontinue the use of one of my Chromecast Audio Dongles. But goodness knows when I will next be in Nicosia! No matter, what I have working is working very well. Thanks to all. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: Screenshot 2022-01-16 15.43.25.png | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=36857| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ Brian In UK: rPi4 running LMS, Chromecast Audio Dongle and Chromecast Video Dongle attached to TV - Beresford DAC - Quad 77 Integrated Amp - AVI Neutron 4 Speakers - Sennheiser HD25 Headphones.
