Re: [ARSCLIST] Headphone Amplifers?

[Bob Wasserman <rawasserman@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm also have been shopping for headphone amps. Try this Full Compass page to compare brands at least. Try the Rolls, Prosonus or ART units.  They usually have some on discount, have one Rolls RA62B for $139, but you might be able to find the unit of choice somewhere else for a little cheaper.

A question primarily for those of you working in institutional 
environments with listening stations, but also relevant to others--

What headphone amplifiers are people using? I'm currently in the market 
for a headphone amp or two as we retool our listening environment, and 
I'm curious as to what others are employing in addition to getting some 
suggestions.

My needs are simple--

1) inputs for two to four listeners, each with an individual volume control.
2) 1/4" jacks
3) limited features (e.g. volume knob, mono/stereo option, but not much 
else)
4)smallish (i.e. not a rackmount monster unit)
5) sub $125 a unit

Thanks!
