[TenTec] 565 Low level audio on headphones

[Richards]

No argument with Barry's suggestion, although I think it would be hard 
to find more efficient headphones than 8 ohms.

My suggestion is to try an inexpensive headphone amplifier.  These cost 
from $20 and up - I use this one:

I figure the $20 Behringer model and any other one like it should cut 
it.  DO NOT order either of the Ramsey headphone amplifier kits - they 
knowingly employ noisy op amp chips, which is scandalous considering the 
terribly poor quality.

Just my take.
