The Oppo has both RCA's (1.2Vrms) and balanced XLR's (4.2Vrms). The Oppo has volume control on their remote for the two analog outs that I would like to use if practical. I think the volume goes down to mute. Thank you Bill

You can setup the Ventus(EZ or otherwise) for balanced input and SE output to your headphones. So you would have balanced input to Ventus?Ventus EZ then each output + GND (run a single GND from the PS) to a phono jack.

Thank you Russ I can't find where the "add to cart" is for the Placid HD-BP or the Ventus EZ ? What is the differance between the Ventus and the Ventus EZ for my project?

Thank you for the reply. Do you have an opinion on which one might be a better match with the Oppo95 and Senn HD600?

I know you guys do an excellent job, but you make two and I would prefer the round and sweet one. I know you must be very busy, which can be good and bad, anyway thanks for the help. Keep a little space around yourself. bill
