Hooking Headphones

Unread post by trippinants13 » Tue Jun 01, 2004 5:02 pm

Is it possible to hook headphones to an amp with no headphone jack. I tried the line out with no success. Any suggestions would be great.

1. get another amp
2. use the line out to the other amp
3. Balance each amp on each of your shoulders with the speakers pointed towards your ears.

You didn't have to be smart. Is it possible or not!

That would make some pretty damn good headphones though.

Hey, I appreciated it. Your mixing it up, everyone says "I don't know." You're just spicing it up a bit.

I would think that if your amp isn't wired for head phones that it can't use head phones. But I'm no amp expert so...


...I don't know. :)

A Line-Out is unpowered, and unless you have some good headphones, it shouldn't work.
