I got an SMSL headphone amp for my AKG K712, but I had problems with the sound cutting out when it got loud. I first noticed with tutti on the Pipeloops Madeleine tutti which wasn't useable unless I had the volume turned down to about 20% of full. It wasn't anywhere near what I would call a maximum comfortable loudness. I returned the SMSL and am trying to decide whether maybe it was just a defective unit in which case I will get another one since the price is low, or if it's a characteristic of this product.
Has anyone else had problems with the SMSL with louder playing?
Thanks!
