Generally speaking, using a headphone out to drive a line-input will not cause even the slightest degradation in audio. However, if your line-input does not have proper anti-aliasing filters, it could cause an increased noise floor. Typically, this is not much of a problem. Ironically, high-end equipment could suffer more than low-end equipment in this regard because sometimes high-end designers make the mistake of attempting to preserve perfect frequency response to 40kHz or even farther, which only lets more noise into the system without actually improving anything sonically. -Caleb -- ccrome2 Caleb Crome Sr. Hardware Engineer Logitech SMBU (i.e. the Squeezebox people) <B>The future is here.
