I've heard repeatedly that a headphone jack is inferior to a true line-out, and it is best to amp a line-out. Why is this? I don't doubt it's true, but could someone please explain why this is to me? I am especially curious because I have a Nomad Zen Xtra as a source, and it only has a headphone jack. I am at odds of whether an amp would have any payoff.
