How do I connect my new LG TV to wired headphones? I have a DAC connected by toslink but need a headphone amp that has volume controls. The DAC works great but the volume is super loud so I can't use the headphones. I have 2 Beyerdynamic 770 Pros, 80 ohm and 250 ohm. Please advise how to connect a headphone amp to the DAC. Brand names and models would be appreciated, as well as instructions. Are there DAC/amp combos available? Please excuse my inexperience.

Since you are getting too much volume you can use one of these with the DAC you have

to turn the volume down.
This one will give you remote volume control

Thanks for your reply. I read it a mere 5 minutes after I returned the DAC! Talk about timing . . . What I would like is a high quality DAC/headphone amp (with volume control) combination with toslink connectivity and a power source/charger included. I have a toslink cable. BTW, this is only for use with a TV, not a computer so I don't need USB. I've done lots of research but there are so many options that it is overwhelming. I am seeking recommendations based upon positive experiences. If I sound like a newby, it's because I am! Thanks again.
