Is this possible? I'd like to connect a cheapish pair of portable in-ear earphones to the RCA ouputs of my DAC. There's volume control on my music server so I assume the ouput level won't be a problem, or am I wrong? Is it a bit like connecting a power amp directly to a CD player and using the volume control of the cd player, which can be quite risky.

I'd use 5m phono to 3.5mm cable with a female to female 3.5mm coupler to connect to headphones to. Would this work ok?

Finally can anyone recommend some in-ear headphones around the £50 mark, I may be prepared to spend a little more on a good bargain. Currently looking at Shure Se210's for £55 from www.iaural.co.uk . Any other good websites would be appreciated!

Thanks!

OK, impatience got the better of me and I ended up buying a pair of denon AH-C751's for £90, any good?

And if I can't use them with my DAC, as least I'll have a pair of £150 headphones for my DS!
