Feature:   Headphone jack 1 & 2 sport a potent headphone amplifier. 
Benefit:   Loads of 

headroom

, to audition intelligibly, make intelligent decisions and drive an inspired performance.  Please exhibit 

caution when selecting a level.  (See 

tip

)

Operation: First choose a source to monitor from, by depressing the appropriate 

headphone

 

source

 button. Then determine a 

moderate listening level via the 

headphone

 

level

 knob.

Tip:  

,

  Always start with the level control completely counter clockwise (minimum).  The headphone amplifiers are very 

powerful and there is no solution for destroyed hearing, even from the audio alchemists at Dangerous Music.
