I need a high quality 2 channel input headphone amp with separate volume controls. 1 channel for line out from computer and 1 channel for line out from amp. Any recommendations? Thx

Old Blood Noise Endeavors makes a phenomenal headphone amp. Stays clean and has great volume. They’re reasonably priced too.

Input PC signal into one channel, input guitar in one channel and listen through the headphone jack

Simple setup: To achieve the desired mix, I generally stick in earbuds from my iPhone to run the tracks then clamp on Audio-Technica headphones that run the steel from the amp.

I use the BOSS Waza Air Headphone Amp setup.
It's wireless and also mixes in sound (like rhythm tracks or lessons) from a Bluetooth source like a computer.

https://www.boss.info/us/products/waza-air/

Amazon, Clearwater etc they all sell it.

At pretty much $390.oo it's by al means NOT cheap.
But if mine (used daily for over 2 yars now) would die out, I'd turn around and' get another one in a heart beat.

The factory sounds are amazing... so much that the only downside I would warn about is that it is habit forming! I have really to force myself to play with my amps (speaker) to stay in shape. Tone-response affects playing technique.

One can fine tune the sound and create new sounds thru a Bluetooth connected phone or computer App. I've never messed with it. I use one setting only... it sound like BE on the Christmas album right out of the box.

A full charge gives just shy of 3hrs of practice time... with BlueTooth tracks mixed in maybe closer to 2 1/2 hrs. This has never declined over the past 2 years and I charge it once sometimes twice almost every day.

... J-D.
