Line Level to Headphone Converter

[rob2966]

Hey all,

Looking for something to convert a line level (TRS/XLR) to headphone (and not too expensive).

I would like to take the 4 AUX sends (monitor mixes) and use headphones instead of wedges.

This is for monitoring in our rehearsal space.

Is there something that either does 4 line inputs to 4 headphone outs or a single line in to headphone out.

Not looking to spend too much money.

Thanks for the help.

Later

There's alot of headphone amplifiers available, but most commercial ones for what you want are not necessarily cheap if you want good performance. There are also some DIY projects that can help same some cash. Here's a couple links that may help acquaint you with them.

You can do a Google search for "headphone amplifiers" and research products/options for what you need.

You could get a new Behringer HA4700 for $160. I don't know if that's "too much money" or not.
