6.3 Line Out TRS 

 
The ADI-2 FS has two unbalanced analog outputs that provide levels up to +19 dBu. The short 
circuit protected, low impedance line outputs are available as 1/4" TRS jacks on the back of the 
unit. Contact R (ring) is connected to ground by a 100 Ohm resistor, which also allows the use 
of virtual balanced connections. 
 
Both TRS outputs deliver the same signals and output levels as the XLR outputs. 
 
 

6.4 Variable Output Level 

 
The ADI-2 FS includes an option to control the output 
level of the rear Line outputs via the VOL pot. In this 
mode  the  current  output  level  setting  (+4/+13/+19) 
stays  active,  optimizing  the  pot  adjustment  path  and 
enabling an offset between Phones and Line outputs. 
 
This  mode  is  activated  and  deactivated  by  pushing 
the ANALOG OUPUT – LEVEL button for 2 seconds. 
The LED of the currently active Output Level will light 
up  dimmed,  and  in  full  brightness  again  after 
deactivation. 
 
 

6.5 Phones 

 

The  PHONES  output  on  the  front  offers  the  same  outstanding  technical  specifications  as  the 
rear outputs (e.g. 120 dBA SNR), thus can be used as high quality Line output as well. Chapter 
13, Connector Pinouts, shows the required adapter cable 1 x TRS to 2 x TS, often referred to as 

insert cable

 
The level of the headphone output is changed in a stepless way using the VOL pot. The special 
High-Power² output design is not only of a very low impedance type (0.1 Ohms), but also offers 
high headroom at up to +19 dBu (6.9 Vrms) maximum output level. 
 
For low impedance headphones, the Phones output provides twice as much power as previous 
High  Power  headphone  outputs.  For  example,  for  32  Ohms  load  0.7  Watts  are  available  per 
channel. The ADI-2 FS uses the driver technology of the ADI-2 Pro, offering very low distortion 
(THD) until it reaches clipping level.
