Phono stage with headphone output

On headphones

— dedicated headphone output directly to a phono stage. Typically uses a 3.5mm mini-Jack or 6.35mm Jack. Note that the direct connection of the "ears" in this case is provided not so much for ordinary listening to music, but for special tasks. For example, a DJ playing a set, or a sound engineer recording music from a record to an external device, using headphones, can constantly monitor the sound coming to the phono outputs.
