Vox amPlug Bass Headphone Amp

[Andrew B.]

I've been reading reviews and the Vox amPlug Bass Headphone Amp looks like a good choice. What I can't figure out is what kind of headphone I would need. I have a headphone that plugs into an mp3 player or computer. Will that work, or maybe there is an adapter I need to plug into the Vox. Or if this won't work, what do you suggest?

Mine uses a standard minijack 3.5mm. The same size that fits most MP3 players.

Sennheiser eh250, inexpensive and same miniplug as the models above and below it.

i use a sony mdr700dj monitoring headphones, its been with me for 8yrs sturdy and handles all my studio work as well.

Thanks. It looks like my Sennheiser PX 100 will work with this, at least to get started

Any headphone is good. Even if the headphone jack on the Vox is 1/4 inch, many headphones come with a 3.5mm-to-1/4-inch adapter. If your headphones didn't come with one and you need one, you can pick up such a stereo adapter at any Radio Shack for just a few bucks.

I use some Skullcandy over-ear 3.5mm headphones with good results. When using standard Apple in-ear ones though..despite making everything slightly more portable (as far as moving my bass out to the living room that is hahha )..it does produce an obnoxious white noise layer...
