You will hear a very quiet signal through the left ear. That's it. TO make it work you need a preamp or phone amp.

If you insert them into a speaker out you will destroy the phones and possibly the hearing in your left ear'ole. Don't do it!!!

If you want to use your amp with headphones there is a little box I describe how to build.

How to use headphones from line out or speaker out jack?
