As I understand it the main problem is that a capacitor in series with the headphone output is too small, which means that low-frequency audio is cut off (the capacitor + the resistance of the headphones forms a high-pass filter). This is consistent with Kevin's observation that it sounded OK when connected to an Aux on another amplifier, because the resistance of that input is much higher than that of headphones. I don't know the actual cutoff frequency or how it compares to other products on the market. Also, I don't have a Freerunner so I'm just basing this on what I've read on the lists. _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
