How loud do you have it?

I have my Jot 2 (with balanced in from a Bifrost 2) at 12 o'clock in low gain with my LCD-5. And this is with a -12 dB headroom for my EQ.

Gotcha. The photo makes the dial look like it's at 3 o'clock. Once you get balanced you'll need a lot less gain with the Jot 2.

Is that a yellow composite video cable you’re using on your dac? You need some cable therapy.

You need two short XLR interconnect cables to run a balanced setup. You also need an XLR cable for your HD800S.
