@Jasonovich The 6.3mm amp side is detachable . Marantz mcr612 is 3.5m. Its more about trs tip ring sleeve phono cable fitting a tip ring ring sleeve socket

@Al ears @Jasonovich @nopiano These are exceptional headphones for the price with full bodied sound can't fault them . Better than listening thru ldac equipped equipment . Clarity and individual instruments are clearer and the bass is good Question ... these are 2.5 mm trrs going into the...

@Al ears @Jasonovich I went for the sennheiser hd560s from amazon. Richer sounds Belfast had it in stock but it 40 miles up the road and i don't like going to The Big Smoke unneccessarily. Thanks for the help 👍

I am looking to connect my tv to my hi fi to play it thru the hifi speakers . Can optical out handle dolby atmos, dolby digital plus or dolby digital or do i have to use hdmi arc
