Well Celo, this is how it works when I use an iFi Nano dac. I use the headphone output to my PRE amplifier. The output is set to 100%, volume knob turned completely right (this is on the mfg's advice as it is essentially a passive pre-amp). Doing this effectively takes it out of the equation. I assume that the amplifier you are using (info would be nice) is a power amplifier. The headphone output on the Mojo could then be used as a a pre amplifier. You need to check your specs, as the volume output could be very low, depending o the sensitivity of the power amp you are feeding it into. Better still, contact Chord with full information of the equipment you are using and ask their advice. They should be able to advise you if the headphone output is sufficient or that you need to use the line ouput setting. (I'm guessing that if you choose the latter then a pre-amp would be required). When asking these type of questions it is important to give as much information and detail as possible. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Man in a van's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=43627 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105793 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
