So hi! Just a quick question. I am looking to get a new amp, but all the headphone amps I am into have ONE input. I have two sources, pc+dac, and turntable+phono

I don't want to have to unplug and plug in the rca jacks every single time, is there a way I can plug both RCA inputs into a box, and then plug that right into the amp? Or something with a switch or, i dunno.

You can get a DAC/Amp combo that would give you multiple inputs.

Mostly looking at a schiit bifrost and asgard for dac and amp, only has the one in :C

Monoprice 788 is what I use.

You need a phono preamp. You can not get good results running a turntable into a headphone amp expecting line-level inputs.

I'm not a moron. I want to take the phono stage and input that into the headphone amp. Hence asking for a splitter box thing. Because most headamps have a single source input.

This is what you are looking for.

Or, a passive preamp, like a Schiit Sys, with the volume knob turned to max.

Last option is a DAC/amp with switchable inputs, like the JDS Labs Element II.

Thanks.

Schiit sys is the easiest to use with what you are talking. Why not pick up Asgard 3 with phono card for turntable and Bifrost for pc. Then switch in front of Asgard for changing sources.

Less wires and less boxes!

Cos an asgard 3 is super expensive and out of my budget, as is a bifrost lmao
