Headphone amp - help please
#33
I tried the preouts direct to my headphones and they worked quite well but two things always concerned me. First was having the same volume control controlling the headphones and speakers at such varying levels, there is a real danger of accidentally blasting the wrong volume through one or the other. Secondly was having the headphone always connected, so i would have to power down the Devialet each time to connect or disconnect which is a hassle. 

The cable/adapter you will require is a 2 x RCA to (6.3mm) headphone socket
I used this one
not great quality but i was unable to find a decent quality version without having one made up

In the end having a separate headphone amp was just a more convenient solution for me.
