As an avid headphone listener and previous owner of 2 integrateds...I whole heartedly agree with Peter S...the best idea is a Tape Out or Record Out. But, if neither exists try a Y fitting out of your CD player. Audioquest and others make Y fittings or your cable company probably makes a Y adapter. One will go to your Integrated and the other to your Headphone Amp.
calling all headphone gurus
I need to add "privacy" to my hifi experience in order to not disturb others around me.
I understand I can accomplish this in at least a few ways I already know about (CD player and/or amp with built-in phone jack). But, none of my current pieces have this capability. So, what do I need to do? Can an outboard headphone amp be "added" to my integrated amp and /or pre/amp combo, or do I need to sell my current amplification gear and swap out for an amp that has a phones jack? The CD player I use is not subject to change which is why I isolate the amps as the items subject to sale.
When answering, please let me know about the "how" to acccomplish this as well as the products that may be good.
I use Fi pre/amps, Exposure integrated and Ayre CD. Thanx, folks.
