Any need to know stuff? Did you need a headphone amp?

What kind of headphones you gonna use? Most of the cheap HP amps are OK for ear buds, but I'd spend
more if you're using studio headphones or really good IEMs.

This Behringer P1 should work fine: https://www.sweetwater.com/store/de...owerplay-p1-personal-in-ear-monitor-amplifierI would definitely not buy cheap with a set of those!

What is the difference between the headphone amp vs mixer? I’m planning to buy a small mixer if got an invite, cost the same as headphone amp
Might be worth trying the y-cable before spending more money on a headphone amp. The AX8 worked just fine with in-ears and headphones with just the adapter. Can't see the FM3 being that much different as far as output goes.
Thanks Donnie.The headphone amplifier is a circuit and some jacks/controls.
It can be in a box by itself or added to anything - like our laptops.
The cost is factored into the mixer if you go that route.
True, I used the AX8 with "less expensive" Skullcandy headphones and ear buds but used 64 Audio A3's and AKG K271 Studios as well and they were just fine without a headphone amp. But who knows. 64 Audio and AKG might fall into the "less expensive" category as well since they don't require an amp.Gonna depend on whether your headphones are high or low impedance.
Less expensive and smaller headphones might work without an amp.
I'm betting his ATs are high impedance and will need some extra juice.

These were my favs until I got a pair of Bowen & Wilkens P7's, which sound more natural to me. My studio monitors now suck in comparison.In my opinion, These are the best headphones you can get under $300
I use them for mixing as well.

Taking a blind guess but check the room acoustics (might be wrong, of course). It can make a huge difference. If in doubt, try them outdoors (facing away from a wall or ideally a camping table in free space).My studio monitors now suck in comparison.
