What phones?
Do you have a headphone amp?
And the big question comes in where speakers are concerned.
First of all, what speakers? What is the RMS power rating? Sensitivity (this can be a useless spec)? And what is their impedance?
You have a ton of options but there is no simple answer, especially when you're talking about a small budget.
But it can be done... help us help you.

I take it back, sorry, I
do need a pre-amp.
Budget: Eh, around $500? at least not for a couple months. We'll see.. but if I am not mistaken, preamps are a buttload of $$.. at least for mics they are, and that is just single channel
Sources:
Optical or RCA (xbox 360)
Digital or .3mm (X-fi card)
x2 L/R 1/4" (usb audio interface for recording, I am a musician, it's for playback)
Phones:
Haven't bought them yet, probably going with AKG K601's
Headphone amp:
LDM+ (portability)
Probably going to buy something else here sooner or later
Speakers:
Nothing yet, selling old ones, But I am looking into Klipsch, we will see.
Anyway, it would be nice if I could get all of these connected to a pre amp, then to an amp, and then to headphones and speakers.. I think I got that right?
Thanks for taking the time to understand me Gonz, I really do appreciate it
