Hi Vinnie,

I have the original version of the Isabellina HPA, and want to use the DAC analogue output to connect to another HP amplifier via RCA.  I have a choice of AC or DC coupling. Can you please recommend/comment on this for me.

Regards,

Hi Morgan,

You can try the "DC coupling" setting (which most likely bypasses an input capacitor of the headphone amp), but if you are hearing a turn on POP or turn off POP, then you should switch to AC coupling.

Best regards,

Hi Vinnie,

Thanks for your prompt response (as always).  No pop, just a click. 

Thanks again!

I am attaching a link which explains this for those interested in the subject.
