McIntosh MA 2275 - Headphone Jack Debacle


Just purchased an McIntosh 2275 Integrated tube amp. Imagine my suprise when I discovered that the speakers still play when the headphones are connected to the amp.

I asked my retailer if I was doing something wrong, he called McIntosh and they repsonded by saying that a) I was the first person to discover this and b) they have no solution to the problem as they never made any provision for this functionality. Makes we wonder why they even bothered to put a headphone jack on the unit.

Any recomendations for headphone amps?

Kbell is techically correct. There is some level of volume control but you really don't get much volume off the headphones - about 25% of what you should be gettting.
