My headphone out sounds really weak and thin for presets coming out, when compared to music through USB. Running them out of output 1 (or 2 with FXL) sounds much better too. Still a little weak but better than the front out.
I thought it might be the headphones at first (AudioTechnica M50x), but the USB sound is fine through them.
AxeFX presets sound better through the rear outputs, but front or rear I need to crank the output knobs to max.
For non-headphone sound I am running a Friedman ASC-12.
The next thing I guess I'll check is increasing preset volumes. I have my amp blocks set to -10 to -20dB, trying to get equal volume levels among presets, with the volume knob at noon so I can go up and down without crawling behind the cab to adjust that volume. This dB adjustment also brings my presets inline with most factory presets volume-wise.
The Friedman is set at around 20% I think and pretty loud for home already with the above settings (dB on amps and knob at noon).
Would a headphone amp like a Schiit Magni help?
