Integrated Tube Amps w/ Headphone Suggestions
I am looking for an integrated amp to drive my UE9s and speakers for a desktop system. I was wondering if anyone could make suggestions or comment on amps like the Cary 300B integrated which seems like an obvious choice. This system would be approx. 75/25 use between speakers/headphone. Thanks!- Austin_J

Driving headphone from speaker level outputs
Hi - I was wondering about how to drive a pair of headphones from the speaker level outputs on a regular amp. Are there products for this or is there an easy DIY solution? I tried before with poor results (amp got hot and sound was poor with a 47 labs gaincard). Thanks, Austin- Austin_J
