If your HDTV has audio output, connect it to your amp -- if compatible.
If not compatible -- like optical output and no optical input on an
older amp -- a new AV receiver is in order.

common problem there is to much gain everywhere.
Ok you have the phone amp -after- the DAC I see .
Not at the Touch analog out.
Then 100% volume it is otherwise you be chopping of bits that the DAC
will be happy to use.
So atenuation before the headphone amp is needed, or can you modify the
