Does the following product exist:

- Stereo XLR input (pass though a bonus)
- Headphone output (only 1 required, both 1/8" and 1/4" is a bonus)
- "good" power connector (locking/latching DC plug or IEC)
- Reasaonably price. (<~$150)
- Stage grade case

I've done some looking and can't find anything. If the price get's too high I'd rather just get Aviom's or ... for the particular application I'm working on.

Thanks

Re: Does it exist: Headphone amp

Here is another option for about $106 + power supply: Peavey HB2
-Stereo input uses 1/4" TRS or 1/8" TRS, switchable stereo/mono
-Stereo thru uses 1/4" TRS
-Requires external 15VDC power supply
-Headphone output with both 1/4" TRS and 1/8" TRS
-"MORE ME" 1/4" input, with adjustable level
-Adjustable limiter for headphone output.

So:
-It does not have XLR input...
-It does not have a good locking DC plug or IEC power inlet
-It does have both headphone outputs
-It does have a reasonable price
-It does have a solid case
-It does have some other features you are not looking for

So maybe it will work for your situation, but maybe it will not. I just thought it might be worthwhile for you to know that it exists.

I am seeing a lot of band members just using small mixers this way.

Just two days ago a stagehand in Montreal gave me his business card. He makes exactly what you are looking for. Not sure of pricing, but probably a bit north of $150.

Behringer...I have many of their headphone amps...never a problem. XLR in and thru...1/4" ins and stereo inserts on each headphone mix.
