Re: Reducing "noise" from output

[Bryan Scaringe <bscaring@slpmbo.ed.ray.com>]

Yep. The hiss is gone using line-out.  I guess this next question may be
a bit off topic, but here goes:

speaker-out is considerably louder at a given volume level than
line-out.  speaker-out also seems to have better quality bass.
line-out however, seems to be much cleaner, lacking the hiss.
So:  What is the difference between line-out and speaker-out,
specificly from a functional standpoint.  Is line-out expected to
be sent to an amplifier that will control bass/treble/vol?
Is this why line-out is less responsive to bass/treble changes
using "aumix" than speaker-out?

Thanks,
	Bryan
