1. PowerMatch (on/off)
PowerMatch enables hip dac 3 to match headphones' impedance and sensitivity in order to generate their highest operational efficiency.
Tip: For in-ear-monitors (earbuds) try PowerMatch off. For headphones try PowerMatch on, When on, the gain increases by 10dB. If your IEMs are very sensitive, try using the iEMatch feature (item 7).
2. XBass (on/off)
Many headphones lack the correct bass response. XBass is an analogue circuit designed to 'add back' the lost bass response for a more accurate reproduction of the original music.

3. Audio Format LED (kHz)

The LED colour scheme indicates the audio format and sampling

frequency received by hip dac 3 from the music source.
