Analog out & Phones out sound different

[jsonting]

i'm try to play my pc sound through toneport ux 2 by connecting analog out to speaker, somehow i realised that it sounds different. It's like it doesn't feel rich anymore, dull sound, and thin sound, bass were even gone. But when i plugged the out from phones, it sounds fine, why?

The headphones output has a small amplification to it. The analog out is line level.

is there anyway to make the analog out sound better?

Turn up the volume.

Turn up the volume.

Or just use the "phones" out.

Analog out is usually 1 channel not a stereo out like the headphone

to get stereo you need tp plug left speaker into Channel 1 and and right speaker into channel 2
if you are pluggin PC speakers (usually a stereo 1/8" jack) into a single analog out it you will get mono and so will not sound as bright and wide as when you plug into a stereo headphone output
