Hi guys, Awaiting the X9 I just ordered. I was wondering if it is possible to use the X9 with an external headphone amp and be able to use the advanced headphone dsp features. I know I can use the XLR out to connect to the external amp, but is there a way to also use the DSP headphone functions (such as crossfeed) with an external amp when outputting XLR? I have a Violectric V222 which should easily outperform the built in head amp. I use Noble Shogun IEMS which are super high end and revealing. You hear everything. I do have a need for the unit regardless. Just deciding whether I swap it in for my evening listening or whether it to use it with my PC and for editing. I can easily move gear around if need be. Thanks!
When you switch to the pre out xlr output, the unit does change to bypass mode. This can be overidden, and a peq applied, as well as effects and crossfeed can be turned on. So the answer is yes
Thank you! Unit arriving on Tuesday. I’ll post regarding how the built in amp compares to my standalone amps.
