Hi chaps Does anyone know, are there any EXTERNAL audio interfaces around that power reasonably sized headphones? I bought a cheap behringer firewire thing a year or so ago (cheap but ultimately rubbish) and it really doesn't have any power on the headphone socket to power studio style phones - specifically AKG 240Ms. Also has anyone got any specific recommendations about models? I REALLY need to upgrade. |

oi will be quite difficult i guess. i would rather recommend a simple headphone amp on that you can also connect other gear not only your pc because i guess that a few others parts of your studio wont be able to power them also. there is afaik a really cheap 4 channels heaphone amp made in the behringer mini-series. google for it. but if you really want another interface than i would rather see which would interest you and download the manual of them where you can check how loud the heaphone out goes. cheers |

That is the worst advice I've ever read! Forget the crappy English and daft un informed speculations. Horrible! |

Hey its not so bad! Thanks sadist. I take it that behringer amp is quite new, I remember searching around for a cheap one of those a while ago and I didn't catch that one. It certainly seems like a good option if I can't find an external box that has more power than most although its a shame that I'd have to add another cable to the works (trying to keep things minimal - I have a laptop setup). |

Listen to Jivver, he's English plus he knows what he is talking about almost as well as I do, which is very well indeed thank you very much. |

Actually he knows MORE than I do as I was going to recommend plugging your headphones directly into the live mains supply whilst standing in a bucket of water. |

Good! I just got a new computer as a massive speaker dropped on my last one the other night. I was pissed out of my brains when I woke up feeling guilty but i hadn't done anything! |

Good to hear, especially that you're still exercising your liver. It's nice to know some things never change. |
