Headphones out

Hi,

Does the headphone output really sound that bad in Kemper Stage, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks!

The Kemper has a good quality headphone out, can you better explain “ sounds bad”.

The Stage has a fantastic Headphone sound quality. Check the output settings, Headphones should be set to "Main Stereo"

The source of the HEADPHONE OUT is always "Master Stereo" and cannot be changed.

I have had dodgy mini to 1/4 inch adapters that have really messed things up as well. Worth checking if you’re using one.

This is a normal HEADPHONE OUT with three contacts tip, ring, sleeve for a normal stereo jack. Some headphones have jacks with more contacts for example to control volume with a pot built into the cable. These might cause issues.

Hi guys,

This was the problem... a stereo headphone cable extension.

For some reason I suppose there was a problem with audio phase…

Now quality it's great!

Thank you all!
