Do you swap cables when using a headphone amp?


My phono stage has one output which will be connected to a Pathos Classic One MKIII. The Pathos does not have a headphone jack so I want to get a great sounding headphone amp to use with my Sennhieser HD650s.

I've never used a headphone amp and I'm assuming you would connect the phono stage output to the headphone amp input. But it doesn't make sense that you would swap the cable every time you changed from headphone to speakers or visa versa. What am I missing here?

or a switch box or pass the signal through the headphone amp to the Pathos, if you get one that has that capability.
