Ah yes, I have tried the headphone out with Grado Rs1i's - great synergy). when the lights are low and I want to listen to some Miles and don't want to wake up my neighbors, its
a great solution. I don't see the volume control going up above 50% for any of my uses so far (about 3 weeks). Includes playing a low output moving coil cartridge as well (well that 's maybe a hair over 50 or 60% if I want to crank it.
In terms of heat, well there is some coming mainly out the top but really not too obnoxious.. I thought it would be hotter. I'd say you need a good 6 inches of free space around the top to be safe.
