Can this be passively used to amplify the sound coming from the speakers, if I plug in my headphones into it?

I'm not sure I fully understand your question. This is a mono preamp that is used to boost the signal from an instrument before going into an amplifier or a mixing board. It is not meant to be used with headphones and if you plugged headphones into the output you would only hear it on one side since the output is signal is not stereo. I'm not sure what you want to use this for but you might be looking for a headphone amp not a preamp booster or something else..

You should be able to. I have only used it to amplify the sound from my bass, but it should work.

Yes. I have it hooked to my TV. Lower the TV volume and the output is lower. Your headphones may also have a volume control and then you can use either one or both to increase or decrease the volume.

Not by itself. This is a passive speaker, it is not ampified. Preamps out are made to connect to an amplifier (such as Boss AR1500M ARMOR 1,500-Watt Mono Mosfet Amplifier ), which in turn would be connected to the speaker(s)

Nope-not without a separate amplifier fed from the low level headphone jack

I don't see how. Its purpose is to connect a computer without surround sound outputs to a surround sound amp. You need something entirely different.

Yes. I've used it with multiple headphones of various impedance and it sounds great. If you really want it to sound even better, I use a headphone amp with it.

I did not have success in a situation where I wanted to plug headphones into the speaker as the output. The volume just wasn't there when I plugged the head phones in. Other than that I haven't used the aux out jack. If this does not answer your question and you want to suggest and experiment to me, I can probably try something out for you.

No. This is a preamp level device, you need an amplifier for connection to speakers.

No, this is a component that needs to be connected to a receiver, amplifier or a mixer. You can use your headphones but there isn't an amplifier built in.

I'm not positive but I think you can ONLY if your headphones have a volume control.

If you haven't already done so try using the headphone line out to the amp. That should work.

This unit is designed to be used as a "box" you put between your source and your amplifier. I injects tube sound into your signal path but is not designed to drive headphones or speakers or really offer much gain. If you need a headphone amp or a turntable pre-amp, look elsewhere.

You Can't use this speaker as Passive only Powered, However there some passive models from qsc

Hi, John.It really does amplify the audio from "Stereo In." It can also decrease the volume if the "Stereo In" volume is pretty hot. The one thing I wouldn't do is attempt to plug in both a 1/4" and a mini-headphones cord into the same amp output channel. This messes with the signal characteristics and may affect how the audio is amplified. Instead, use one jack per output channel. HIH!

Yes you can use it with any device that has a headphone jack. It will amplify the sound

no, because it's not a piece of electronics that is connecting to anything inside the phone/ipod, etc. so main sounds from normal speakers will still work accordingly. it's just a like a rubber plug for the headphone jack.

It's not a good idea. You are buying this to have sufficient power to drive each pair of headphones you are using. Doing this will cut the power available in half and you will then complain of volume problems. This would be like buying a simple splitter from Radio Shack, plugging that into your iPod (or any source), and then plugging two pair of headphone into it. Not enough power to do that, and that's why you need an amplified unit in the first place. I hope this helps.
