Sep 18, 2007 02:07 pm no this would be the right forum, I deleted the other...
welcome to HRC.
It doesn't appear you have a headphone output available...
Sep 18, 2007 02:13 pm sorry about that..
thanks for replying so soon
what would i need to get to be able to have a headphone output?
thanks again
Sep 18, 2007 02:25 pm You'd need a headphone amplifier to put in your chain someplace like this www.homerecordingconnecti...oduct=BEHAMP800
They're pretty cheap.
Sep 18, 2007 02:27 pm You would need (at least this is one option) a headphone amp. Behringer makes one for under $100 and I've been using it for a couple years without any problems.

Sep 18, 2007 02:28 pm so, the way i get it (sorry if im a bit slow, im quite new to this)
I have Output 1 + 2 from my soundcard, which goes via phono jack to xlr to both monitors...
If i put that headphone amplifier inbetween them so it goes Output 1+2 to headphone amp, then the amp can split the signal between headphones and monitors?
thanks
Sep 18, 2007 02:35 pm Yes, there are inputs and outputs on the back of the amp to handle your routing and then you use the front headphone jack for your phones.
Sep 18, 2007 02:59 pm great, thanks you guys...this site is awesome i have no idea how i stumbled across it! but im glad i found it lol thanks for your help and so quick too! **thumbs up**
Sep 18, 2007 03:14 pm are there any makes other than behringer? what are some good makes of equipment that are good for headphone amps?
thanks a lot
Sep 18, 2007 03:18 pm yes, there are loads, search the product catalog, theres lots of 'em, I had a Samson for quite a while that was quiet good.
Sep 18, 2007 03:26 pm i heard samson was supposed to be good my friend recommended it to me.... i guess you guys are in the USA, im from the UK...any chance you ship?
thanks
Sep 18, 2007 03:58 pm on a 1010lt, you have 8 outputs you can use, no need to split from output 1 & 2, just use any other pair.
I have a samson HP amp, and I like it. I haven't used it much, but the little I have, it's been just like it's supposed to be.
I use my mixer, as a headphone source too. I send 2 channels back to my mixer, but either way works. The HP amp is nice if you have multiple sets of phones you want to drive. If you just have 1 set to push, then there's several ways to do it, mentioned above.
There's also the ART line of HP amps, they're smaller and probably cheaper, but I don't know how available they are in the UK.
Click on here, and type in headphone amp in the search box, and you'll get a list of available ones through a UK source.
