No, my 'dealer' plugged everything back in the same place. No idea what a Conch isSo it‘s only the Source „DS“ which is quieter? Have you tried to plug in the DS in the place where normally your TV is? Any chance that you mixed XLR and Conch settings.
A difference of 20 is huge and not normal.
Sorry, I mean „Cinch“No, my 'dealer' plugged everything back in the same place. No idea what a Conch is
Unbalanced vs. Balanced.
There are no balanced cables.Sorry, I mean „Cinch“
Unbalanced vs. Balanced.
No, the TV has the same slightly lower volume. Pointless.So try to swap TV and DS.
But switch of the KK before.
I think I'll just live with it. It's really not too much problem. I just thought it was worth asking around to see if anyone else had noticed.
Case closed - thanks for the suggestions everyone

You have an upgraded KDS Organik and a TV both connected via Cinch (unbalanced) to your Klimax Kontrol?
And after the KDS Upgrade all sources connected to your Klimax Kontrol are 20 points quieter?
It‘s very unlikely that this has anything to do with your upgrade.

I was referring to the KDS, not the KK. Are we talking at cross purposes?Yes, default startup is 50 and I've changed the max from 80 to 100.
Are you positive that the internal volume control in the KDS is disabled? I would expect it to be on by default. If it is, the KDS will be starting up with a default volume of 50, instead of line level, which is 80.
- Internal Volume control that will directly control the analogue audio level coming out of the Linn DS. This is good for directly connecting to a Power amplifier on your speakers.

I agree. That points to the Kontrol being the problem.???

Yes, my dealer and I disabled it because I'm using a KK and there is no sound if it's enabled.I was referring to the KDS, not the KK. Are we talking at cross purposes?

Just got my Klimax DS back from being upgraded to Organik.
Have not noticed that I need to use a different level on the pre-amp - but will see what I find over a longer period.
In one of your other posts you provide feedback about the various Klimax DS upgrades. I very much agree with your assessment - greatest impact was derived from going KDS/0 to KDS/1.
I went from KDS/1 to Organik and I can very much hear an improvement but it does not have the same "wow factor" as when I upgraded from KDS/0 to KDS/1.

I concur with your assessment completely, which, as you say is my assessment and evaluation exactly as you describe.Just got my Klimax DS back from being upgraded to Organik.
