Hello, a friend of mine would like to start producing beats, he has a used Scarlet interface which is bus powered, the headphone output unfortunately has a little too little power for his Beyerdynamic headphones with 250 ohms.

He only needs one input for his microphone on the interface, otherwise it would be important that the headphone amplifier can play loud and has power, he produces with FL-Studio.

Can anyone recommend one of these or say something about the drivers and stability?

but beware too much volume on the headphone will produce hearing damage, that will lessen your musical abilities over the years and cause problems in understanding the world around you.

you don't need a new interface, you need a headphone amp or better yet a pair of powered speakers.

Audient ID4 MKII

 

Just get a headphones amp, getting a new interface only for the output stage is a terrible deal even if you also could use the input. Output never scales equally between interfaces, while AD/DA usually does. A headphones amp will let you take your headphones anywhere, and mostly important, it's going to sound the same on every interface, just make sure there's available IO in the back, but passing through the headphones output will not add any meaningful distortion if you have any multimeter (measure the headphones out of the interface with a 50hz tone generator until you get 2v out of the jack, after that plug in the amplifier and control your headphones volume from there, simple as that), or you can use your ears and just set the gain until you're satisfied.

OTHER THAN THAT, any Audient ID interface, but you need to use a USB-A 3.1/USB-C connection to get the full energy of the amp. My Audient is still virgin there, it still can't compare to a 10-year-old Schiit Magni 2.
