Headphone amp for Duet
I need to run 2 sets of phones for monitoring with my Duet. Is it possible to run a headphone amp with one of these, seeing that it already has one for one set of phones? Any decent and affordable ones that work well and won't mess up the sound? Thanks!

The Creek OBH-11 is a nice little amp for only $199.

can you Y-cable from the headphone out? that's actually a very decent headphone out on the Duet.

The Creek is a single channel amp, so it won't work to supply two mixes. I'd echo Jahn and say at the very least it's worth trying a y-cable/splitter. The onboard amplifier's pretty stout and you may find that more than sufficient. If not, the Rane HC4S runs about $250: not sexy, but they make very solid, competent gear and you'll be good for a while with four channels.

That's what I'm hoping to do- I just wasn't sure if it would work, or not. I'll try a splitter and see how it goes. I just need to be able to monitor while somebody else tracks and is wearing phones. I'd definitely rather spend money on mics vs. a headphone amp. Thanks!
