[QUOTE="Timo Ulkuniemi, post: 73850, member: 1978"] Re: Headphone jacks Hello I just connected ohm meter between the two outputs ( console power OFF - naturally ) - they seem to be hardwired parallel. So ANY difference in headphone impedance will upset balance - the lower impedance phones drawing more juice. Then there is also the question of headphones sensitivity - I understand there can be up to 10 dB variations. These two things may sum up to 15-20dB balance difference between two sets of headphones. Therefore one should use equal phones on both sides for best results - or find suitable pair via trial and error. [/QUOTE]
