Naim nait 5i headphone amp connection

[Spiritwalker27]

All, I can find a good few guides via Google but none that quite seem to answer the question in a non-mind bending way !

If my naim's tape out is rca, not din, am I correct in thinking I can connect a headphone amp using normal rca cables from tape out on the naim to source in on the headphone amp ? I'm not going to be using a naim headphone amp.

Or do I need the din to rca cable and find another way ?

Please keep it simple

RCA is all that is needed from the 'out' connections, you don't have to complete the circuit so just the one pair of leads is needed. Will be a fixed gain so that the headphone amp's volume control will be used. You will have to manually mute your speakers when you want to run the headphone amp.

That makes sense, thanks
