amps & headphone sockets

excuse my ignorance on this one. If an amp/combo doesnt have a headphone socket, is there some way to add one? Either by wiring one in, or by using a "fake speaker" box which the headphoens would then plug into? I can understand that raw speaker-level output from a big amp might blow up headphones (which just seem to be mini speakers really), but is there some way to "step it down" to work with headphones?**

thanks




** have small baby but would like larger amp

i'd imagine it'd be a hell of a lot easier just to get a headphone amp - one of those VOX bass jobbies are supposed to be the bees knees. The output on my zoom 506 doubles as a headphone socket which is what I use and you can pick them up for a tenner. Of course if money isn't an issue then there's the newer B2.1's to consider. I've also run the bass through my stereo aux input to send to headphones although the sound was pants. :)
