Internal Sound different via Headphone and LinkReceiver
-
When I use the headphones to listen to internal sounds like Resozen or others they sound exactly like the Aodyo Youtube examples but if instead I send it to the LinkReceiver which in turn uses LineOut to an amp with everything turned off (meaning no gain or other effects) except volume it sounds quite different. The sound has lost its richness/deep tone and is more high pitched.
Not sure if others have run into this type of problem?
Thanks.

@ahiotis Have you connected your headphones into the Link's headphone socket? Yes, I know that you will probably need a convertor as the Link's headphone socket is ¼" (6mm).

@Gromit No but I can get one and will try today and let you know. Now for Left Line Out and Right Line Out I assume those are used to send to two different speakers? I tried all 3 individually to the Amp and no changes. Should I also try combining left and right and send that to the Amp? I think there's like a Y Combinator. My Sylphyo is version 1.48 and I assume that the Link is also 1.48 but how do you find out the version number?
Thanks,

@ahiotis I purchased an Adapter that I can put my headphones in the Link Receiver Phone Line and the sound coming out of there does not match what I get why I put my headphone directly in the Sylphyo. So I can eliminate the problem being between the Link Receiver and my Amp. I tried resetting the pairing but that did do anything. How can I check the version I am running on the LinkReceiver?
Not sure what else to check?Thanks,

Glad to report that the problem has been fixed. I bought my LinkReceiver after the Sylphyo and never used until now to play the Internal sounds out. I didn't know how to check the version of the firmware but downloaded 1.48 firmware as I am happy with that version on the Sylphyo and everything sounds as expected. So I assume the firmware version on the LinkReceiver was different and was the cause of the problem.
Thanks,

Absolutely not. The outputs may be protected, but you should never combine two outputs without summing them properly. Splitting one line output into two is ok, but simply putting them together is a no-go.

@Peter-Ostry Thanks Peter. I didn't try as I was able to determine that the problem was that the LinkReceiver had a different firmware version than the Sylphyo.
