Thanks for confirming. Initially I thought I could use output 5 that is configured for HT bypass. I’ll experiment with the tape out.
Yeah. The second preamp for phono isn’t ideal. I’m doing some research on a proper phono pre.
Integrating headphone system
Hi all. Hope summer is treating everyone well.
I recently added a XP-22 to my 2CH system. It does not have a headphone input/amp. What's the best way to add headphone listening to a 2CH preamp that does not have a headphone input while using my existing DAC and preamp?
I've read most users add a separate HPA by connecting to tape out. And thus use the HPA as the controller. The XP-22 has two sets of unbal. and one set of bal. outs. Can I use these to connect to the HPA and avoid clipping? I assume doing so would not mute the output to my speakers. I'm currently using one of the two bal. inputs set to unity gain to use a separate preamp that has phono input.
Thanks!
