Hey All,
First post to this forum. Surfed here occasionally for sage advice though. Anyway, this past summer I was looking to start playing vinyl on my "nice" turntable (read: not the portable I bought at Urban Outfitters), so I went out and bought a manageably priced amp. I ended up with a Rega Brio 3 integrated amp and some Paradigm speakers. The salesman sold me on the Brio as a great value at the price, with very little bells and whistles. So no tuning or remote. I didn't even occur to me to ask about a headphone jack. May be a generational assumption, since every piece of electronic gear I have ever owned came with one. This is a bit of a problem for me, as I can't really crank this thing due to living in a condo, and it'd just be nice to have the option for headphones once in a while.
To the question. Is there a way to get headphones working with this? Like buying another box and hooking them up to each other? Try and sell the Brio and buy another system? Or am I just hosed? I am very much a rookie at stereo equipment on this level, so any help or information would be greatly appreciated. Have a good one.
