Red face headphone monitoring?

Hey folks,

When I record, I would like to use headphones for the musicians to listen through to instead of using the speakers in which could cause feed back. I'm looking for a rack system that has a lot of outputs to have for each person.
I was looking on musiciansfriend website and foung a Behringer HA4700 Powerplay® Pro Headphone Amp. Would this work? I hope you guys know what I'm talking about. thanks for the help.

A headphone amp/splitter is a must when you need more than one headset and are recording in the same room as your speakers. Any headphone amp will work for this purpose. I don't know the behringer you are writing about, but it surely will work ok. You can read user reviews on that Behringer here
I'm using a cheap LEEM HDA44

wich has one input and 4 outputs with separate volume on each channel. Works fine.

Dracon is on a distinguished road
For tracking any headphone amp will work just fine.

ART makes one also... I've seen these go for around $20-$30 on Ebay...

I like the Carvin one. I have a rolls right now, but I don't like how it changes the overall soundo fthe mixes being put through it. It adds more bass on the mixes. I also like that it's racked, and has 2 seperate stereo inputs A/B, and even an auxilarry input on the front where you can plug in active instruments to play along with songs. I will probably pick one up sooner or later.
