I use a volume slider w/ headphone jack. Would this pass through amplification to headphones? Are both "headphone" and "line out" ports amplified?

As far as I can tell the amp is activated in the software. Only time it wont be amped is if you turn it off or use optical out.

@Gustavo: Yes. Any amplified speakers, such as these, are made specifically to be used with non-amplified sources (i.e., virtually non-amplified). That would include any personal computer, iPods and other MP3 players, and frankly, anything with a headphone jack. They are still called "headphone" jacks since that's what their original use was intended for, and then the speaker companies had an existing and standard sound-out jack to take advantage of. DAMAGE CONTROL: Always be safe the first time you use any new speakers by beginning with the volume controls (on both the source and the speakers) set to low, and gradually increase them.

Anything with "line" out like RCA (Red/White audio) plugs. With a headphone splitter cable, you can use the headphone output also. Be mindful of the player volume using headphone out, but most likely, you will want it close to full output level. By getting an adapter ending in 1/4", you can plug it in channel 13/14 or 15/16 and the Trim works with it for volume matching. In channel 9/10 or 11/12, trim is NOT an option. I have 3 of these in various places. I recommend it for DJ/Karaoke/Live band music.

Thanks for the replies. Will keep it in mind when I am ready to buy a headphone amp.

My inline jack is broken, so I can't actually test this for you, but I think that the answer has more to do with your operating system than the headphones. To the best of my knowledge, the standard setting for most systems makes you push the audio to one device or another, but if you find a forum specific to support for your OS and post your question there, someone might be able to help you figure out the right work around.

It's just a 3.5mm (1/8th inch) jack on either side, so as long as you can get audio into it then the source doesn't matter. I have not tried to use something like a microphone headset with it, but I don't imagine that would pass the signals through, and you would need a 4-connector cable on the other end, which I've never seen.It has its own volume controls (which is why I got it, to use with a console's line out) so even if the volume control on your headphones don't work, you can adjust the volume on the amp itself.

I concur with Zapa but you may want to look at other options for amplification. At best, this only replaces a broken headphone jack.

I understand that the line out is not meant for headphones:http://forums.fender.com/viewtopic.php?f=45&t;=73398

Yes you can. You'd use the headphone out as you "audio out" and it works just fine. I don't know what you mean by the low audio out signal. I have no issues.

I did not have success in a situation where I wanted to plug headphones into the speaker as the output. The volume just wasn't there when I plugged the head phones in. Other than that I haven't used the aux out jack. If this does not answer your question and you want to suggest and experiment to me, I can probably try something out for you.

Nope if headphones are plugged in analog RCA output is muted. This would be true of any decent audio amp or dacs. I love this dac more than any of the 400-500 dollar ones I tried.

It depends on if your table has a Line out. If it is only a Phono output, that means it needs to be corrected for the RIAA curve with a Phono Preamp, otherwise your highs are going to be shrill and you won't have any low end. The Audio Technica LP-60, for example, has a built-in phono preamp, so you could plug that table directly into this amp for headphone use with the line output.

Yes, it only has a headphone out. I'm connecting mine to a mixer, which is nice to boost lows with an EQ. See no reason why you shouldn't be able to amplify it with an audio interface. The only drawback I see is that it doesn't have separate outs & you can't control the individual volumes of the drum parts.

Short answer to that question, is HELL YEAH. This amp should be able to push your headphones to their max potential, I looked up your headphones and they're rated at 32ohms impedance, I run a pair of Sony MDR X10 that are rated at 24 ohms, so mine have a slightly less load than your headset will put on the amplifier and mine are very loud with this amp. The amp is rated up to 100 ohms on the highest gain setting, so I think it should be more than sufficient to push your headphones closer to their intended limits, almost 2 times better than your iPod or equivalent listening device can manage. Do it! I wanna see your review when you've tried it. P.S. if you like to listen loud for a long time the battery in the amp won't last very long, I haven't timed it, but on high volume levels I might have gotten closer to an hour before getting the low battery light, Its a blast though. Good luck...

Yes, it takes a line-level TRS or XLR in, and has a volume knob to control the amplification. No other amp is needed. These speakers can get relatively loud, and I've never heard them distort from being pushed too loud.

No, I'm afraid not. With a headphone connection, the audio signal is directed outward to the headphone's speakers; this is an AUX jack which does the exact opposite. It takes the audio signal from, my phone for instance, and directs it inward to be projected from the speaker. I was hoping for the audio jack myself, but this is definitely not it. The speakers themselves, I really like. I hope this answers your question.

I don't know. I bought it to amplify headphones. It didn't work like I wanted it to. So I threw it away.
