Why not try the preamp outs? I just wired up my new Senn HD600s to the RCA outs of my Aleph P, and it's great! Why bother with another amp stage in the chain? Good luck.

Use "regular" amp to power 'phones?
Is it OK to use a "regular" power amp to power headphones? If so, how? If not, why?
I realize that most amps are expecting to see a load around 4 to 8 ohms and most headphones would present a load of around 600 ohms. I also realize it would be silly to connect a Crown Macro Reference to headphones (perhaps to anything), but I'd explore small tube amps, perhaps SET.
