If you are unsure, start with the simplest path: a compact headphone amp. It solves the quiet-practice problem without a desk, software, or a full recording setup.
If you already know you want wireless headphones, BOSS Waza-Air is the different category. If you want a lower-friction plug-in unit, compare Mustang Micro Plus and VOX amPlug 3 first.
