    Hi there,
    I bought this last year and having just picked up a lovely set of AKG Q701's I was excited to try them out on my Vinyl Records...
    Only issue I had was when I connect the headphones to the AMP the first thing I noticed was that the Speakers remained on. I then had a listen through the headphones and they didn't seem amplified at all ?
    I also have the Denon 720 cd player which also has a headphone socket and tried the headphones there and it worked perfectly. You plug in the headphones and the speakers switch off with the sound beautifully presented in the headphones. 

    So I guess am I doing something wrong ? Or is the headphone socket broken on the amp ? I've never used it since I purchased it so not sure if the issue has always been there.
    Thanks for reading.

    Actually I might had sorted this lol
    Hidden in the manual it states
    When both A and B are set to “OFF”, no sound is produced
    from the speakers. Use this when listening over headphones.

    I'll try this when I get home..
