Newbie here.
I've read in several threads that most stereo amplifiers have a cheap and therefore not so great headphones output, and unfortunately my CD player doesn't have a headphones output (which probably might have been superior?)
Although the sound from my Cambridge Audio Azur 640A (v1) stereo amplifier, listening to CDs from my CA Azur 640C (v1) CD player has enough power and sounds decent enough, I can't find out anywhere whether it's just a bog standard headphones output socket - I do know that on its successor, the v2, it is a top quality one, so I'm assuming they upgraded it from that on the v1.
My question; is it possible to listen on this amp by connecting it to another output on the amp, eg tape or aux outputs? I was thinking of some lead such as a 2 x RCA with a female headphone socket, but I wanted to ask the experts first.
I use Sennheiser HD598 and Sony MA900, both of which have low impedance and high sensitivity
Any ideas?
