    Audio Interface to Receiver to Headphone Amp

    Ahh, I see. Thank you for the information. I still am not sure about the outputs I mentioned. For the line out, the only options I see are the rca zone out, hdmi zone out and a rca pre out.

I figure the audio interface has outputs, so the signal...

    Best Flat/Neutral Closed Back Recording/Tracking/Reference headphones under $1000?

    I appreciate the insight. You got me looking into somethings I hadn't thought about, so thank you for that. I do understand that there isn't a 100% sounding headphone out there, because of many variables including each person's ear canals being acoustically different than the next, which doesn't...

    I've been researching many hours so far and haven't found anything that stands out. I know everyone's ear is different and is looking for different qualities. I'm looking for something that is closed back, so I can track, but also for referencing while I listen back to a track. I want the...
