in the world of "lets smack it and that should fix it" that could possibly work. but i would keep it pretty low. but unless my headphones were extremely cheap, i wouldnt want to try it and kill the headphones and possibly my ears. think about getting something small like one of those art headphone amps or something thats about 50 bucks. i have a behringer powerplay HA4700 for a headphone amp and that was $99 bucks. it has 4 inputs in the front and some more in the back. the front inputs have treble, bass and various other nuances.
