Not only will it not sound right, but youll destroy the amplifier. The T-Amp does NOT like to have a shared ground connection. (Left and right earth terminals connected).

So dont try running headphones from the T-Amp unless youve got a K1000. Even then, some people say its bad for the headphones because of current irregularities. Also, the K100 deserves better.
