It's a question that has always been nagging me. Those familiar with the HTS-2000 know it has several banks of outlets with labels applied to them like CD, DVD Player, Preamp, Receiver, Amp, etc. Apparently some receptacles offer more powerful conditioning, like the "CD" or "DVD Player" (digital gear) receptacles for example, where the "Amp" receptacle is to have less filtering. I know a lot of people have claimed it's not good to plug a high power speaker amp into the HTS-2000 or similar types of power conditioners because of "current limiting" possibilities. My question is where does a headphone amp fall in regard to which receptacle to use? Headamps are basically preamps in a way so my inclination would be to use it with the "Preamp" receptacle but then again this is a small amplifier too, delivering current to a small pair of speakers- headphones. But we're only talking little more or even fractions of a watt. Perhaps using "Amp" or "Receiver" would be a better choice? Any opinions?
