Need help building an amplifier-headphone adapter


Hello

I have an integrated amplifier (12W) that does not have a headphone output and I want to find a way to listen via headphones.

The easy solution would be to find a device like the ASL UHC. But I have not managed to find one for sale in Europe.

Now I want to try to build one myself :) Could be a nice project and will add a nice feature to my amplifier.

Does anyone here have experience building such a device as the ASL UHC? Are there any kits or schematics available?

Thanks for any advice.

You may do as Yogiboy did with directly coupled output stage amplifier. That will work if you have relatively high impedance headphones. If you don't, you won't be able to control the volume correctly and will have a chance of blowing either your ears or headphones whichever comes first.
If you have an output transformer in your amp, you'll need to find another transformer to match impedance of your headphones.
