Hi Folks...Was wondering if anyone can suggest a decent Headphone amp. Preferably at least 6 channel.

I was checking out the ART HeadAmp6Pro and was wondering if anyone has had any experience using this? If so, is it a noisy unit or is there something better in the same range? I would prefer rack mount. Its always nice to see the toys lined up in one area. lol...

First off I would like to say that this is a rocking fourm, lots of great info and this is my first post.

I need some advice. I just started tracking an extremely heavy metal band, they are very talented but we are having a hard time getting a good preformance out of the lead singer. I have heard him live and he is very impressive but is lacking in the studio.

Has anyone Tried these headphones? Tape op had an advertisement for them and the big shots seem to like them a lot. Any thoughts or Review would be great. For as inexpensive as they are they could be a great investment for starters like myself on a low budget. :wave:

I was looking for some good headphones for recording, and am leaning towards beyerdynamic dt990. Does anyone have any suggestions around the same price range?

I'm struggling with the age-old problem of getting exactly the right mix of the lead vocal in relation to the instruments.

I use the stereo headphone output on my digital piano to record straight to mp3 recorder. But the mp3 recorder has no level adjustment. So I need a go between box between the piano and the mp3 recorder, only to reduce volume, I don't need to amplify.

Does such a device exist? Presumably it just needs to be a resistor, passive not active. Any tips? Thanks

I am doing some research for a friend that wants to get into recording as a hobby. He needs a pair of phones for monitoring while recording and maybe for playing guitar at night when he can't turn the amp on. He will not be using these for mixing or referencing or anything like that. He just wants a nice pair of phones for around the budget mark.

i have a ART HeadAmp4 and I'm trying to use it with a Tascam US1641 pre
I'm not really sure how or what cable i need to use these two together so i can mix with headphones and not with my monitors.

any help?

Hello everyone,

I have recently bought a pair of Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO 80 Ohm, but I noticed that the jack on the audiocard has some DC, and sometimes while keeping the volume high the sound distorted.
Then I plugged my headphones into the mixer to avoid the DC problem, but how can I know if I damaged them already even if the exposition to DC has been just for some days?

Its been awhile since I posted here so here goes...

I've known for awhile now that my mixes don't translate well. Usually they sound a bit muffled (lacking upper-mids and highs) when being played on other quality sound systems.
