You can switch the headphone output to the

You can improve sound quality by turning off
Wi-Fi

A mode suitable for when you have
connected balanced headphones. Compared
to the normal single-ended operation, you
can get a larger output and the high voltage
is not grounded together with the small
signal, so you can anticipate a superior effect
in the background of the music. Because you
get a larger output, you can drive
headphones with a higher impedance.
