Hi everyone!

Can someone that has/knows this card, please confirm if there's any difference in sound volume (or quality), between Output-1 , and Output-2 .. ??

I recently acquired an MX300, and the volume on OUT-1 is noticeably lower than OUT-2 [edit: even in Quad mode] 😟
(about 30% lower I would say)

Thanks!

Output two is the speaker out which is amplified, and output one is line-out.

Yes OUT-2 has headphone amplification.. But it stays amplified even when it's set into "Quad" mode!.... Is this actually normal for this card??
(I've tried Diamond v1.02 drivers, and standard drivers v2041 & v2048)
