Hello!
I am thinking of a situation that seems possible, but am a little worried that I might break something.
I am meeting some friends perhaps to record a bit. Now this is what I have when we meet.
Computer
Focusrite Clarett 4pre audio interface
An old B&W Zeppelin Air, with 3.5 mm tele input
A couple of headphones
Is the risk huge (for the Clarett mainly) if I try to drive the Zeppelin from one of the headphone outputs on the Clarett? Or should I run off and buy some species of mono 6.3 (balanced?) to stereo 3.5 mm solution for this, in all likelyhood, one-off situation?
Am thinking of plugging in a guitar and a base straight into the Clarett.
Has anyone tried this?
Humbly, Ylan

Re: Line in from headphone amp
The 'tele' input on the B&W Zeppelin will almost certainly be built to accept the signal from the headphone output of a TV set so you should be fine driving it from the Focusriter headphone out.
Apply the usual common sense and if it sounds distorted turn it down.....
