You guys arent getting what I said.

I meant to use *a second small mixer* between headphone out and the line in of the PA's mixer.

But instead of viewing at as a mixer here, it would be functioning as a Line Amplifier to boost the signal that the main PA mixer is fed.

Not unorthodox at all, really, I do that quite often to obtain some extra inputs on the PA's mixer when needed, just press my home recording mixer into service jacked into one of the stereo line inputs of the main board and use it as well as the channels on the board. I have indeed done this to boost the laptop headphone signal into the main PA, too.

Oh I most certainly did get what you said.We've been saying for years how the headphone output was perfectly fine and was totally adequate. And indeed it is. I bet 99% of the people here are using it into there mixer with no issues and no added gain stage. I have a new Lenovo and this is not a problem. No one else is having a problem. He appears to be the only one. Makes me curious as to why.
