Headphone Volume

[Robert]

Hi all,

When I attach a headphone to my CQ-20, the audio is barely audible, even with the levels cranked to max.

I put a headphone amp in, and it works, but that doesn’t seem right.

Am I missing something/do I have a defective unit?

My CQ-20B is plenty loud at the default level, so you either have a problem with the unit, or you may have a PAFL button engaged somewhere.

It’s probably user error, but it seems to be on every channel.

What levels are you referring to?
What mix are the headphones listening to? They can be set to any output mix, so set to main LR as a starting point.
What’s the headphone model and input impedance?
Mine drive headphones very well.

As an FYI, my headphone ports on my 18T don’t work either. Did all the troubleshooting, headphones work on guitar amp, tried ‘listening’ and ‘Main L/R’, no channels were solo. Reached out to the US distributor and they are going to RMA the unit after a factory reset didn’t work. I found a guy on another facebook group with the same problem on a 12. He RMA’d also.

There may be a build QA issue here. The mixer is working well otherwise.

For the straw poll, my CQ18 headphone sockets work perfectly. 👍🏻😃

Did you ever solve low volume headphone jacks?

Can you adjust the headphone volume level using the app? Thanks!

@Jeff,

Yes, go to the home screen and there you will find the volume adjustment.
