Hey Jay

I think I would go with a simpler approach, something
like this Headphones amp

http://tinyurl.com/ysqqb
or
http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/sid=040219073958148244068034343115/g=live/search/detail/base_pid/180615/

much cheaper, but well I play alone or with maybe a
friend sometimes, so I would not ever spend nearly
400dlls for such equipment, if you walk by my house
you will either hear some really horrible singing, or
some sticks hitting rubber pads, in a rather
inconsistent manner..... well I hope to be of some
help.

Pedro.
