Title: Using Mini with Headphones
Post by Butch on 12/14/18 at 22:17:56

Hi everyone,

Torii manual states the following.... :-/

".... Operation and Setup

To operate your amp, carefully install the tubes and hook up the output jacks to the
speakers. Once you are sure the speakers and amp are securely connected together with a high quality RCA cable you may then plug the amplifier into the wall outlet.

Before you turn it on make sure that both volume controls are turned all the way
down...... "

Is it OK NOT to connect speakers? I am planning to use the amp with headphones alone.

Any input much appreciated!

Since you are using headphones, the amp has a load, making it safe. Also, Decware amps are not prone to trouble without the speakers connected.

My first post on here and currently I am using mine only with headphones as well. Just wondering how you find it pairs with your headphones? Which headphone(s) have you paired it with so far?

I am still learning how to adjust the sound. It's so different than a solid state amp that at most has just high or low gain to select from. lol

Any suggestions on ideal setting for headphones, if there is such a thing would be appreciated. I not an audio techie, so please go easy on me. :)

I use Senn 580s with my Mini. I experience some hum but not enough to be a bother.
