OT - headphone amp
I need at least a 4 channel headphone amp for recording. Don't want to spend alot but don't want to buy something that won't do the job. Mostly small combo jaz and funk groups.
Anyone have experience with either of these? Samson S-phone ($130): http://www.samsontech.com/products/p...D=99&brandID=2 PreSonus HP4 (100): http://www.presonus.com/hp4.html Any other suggestions?

Re: OT - headphone amp
I don't know much about the headphone amps that you mentioned but I own the Behringer Powerplay Pro and I am very happy with it. Take a look. Click below

I've got the Behringer 4600, and it works great. The current model is 4700, I don't know what's the difference, features and controls are the same, from what I can see.

Re: OT - headphone amp
Huh, don´t buy the Behringer, I have a 4700 and a Samson S Phone, and the S Phone is WAY better. Sound is clearer, louoder, simply better. You always need to compare things. I was shocked how worse the Behringer was compared to the Samson.
Sorry Guys.... Andi

Re: OT - headphone amp
So who stole who's design, Behringer or Samson? They sure look the same. Or are they made in the same factory?
