It all depends on your source
To choose gain for Objective2, refer to your audio player's output strength:
  • 1.0VRMS (iPod, iPhone, many Androids, typical laptops, etc.) → Choose gain of 2.5/6.5x
  • 1.5VRMS (most iMacs) → Choose gain of 1.0/4.5x
  • 2.0VRMS (OL DAC, most aftermarket DACs) → Choose gain of 1.0/3.5x
  • 2.1VRMS (ODAC RevB) → Choose gain of 1.0/3.3x
  • >2.1VRMS (professional audio equipment) → Choose gain of 1.0/2.5x

Sip_FoI run mine from a DAC with 2.1v output so I went with the medium gain. It's fine for low impedance headphones on low gain and I use high gain for my HD6XX.
