Balanced Headphone Amp

At once compact and powerful, the Lake People HPA RS 08 headphone amplifier delivers neutral sound with a wide soundstage and extremely low self-generated noise. It features four internal amps—left in phase, left out of phase, right in phase, and right out of phase—and has a five-step adaptive gain setting on the back panel that allows you to customize the amp to perfectly match your headphones. The rugged black anodized aluminum chassis is complete with an ALPS RK27 high-grade volume control on the front panel. 

Note: At checkout, choose between 115V and 230V power options.

Construction

The Lake People HPA RS 08 is equipped with a toroidal transformer, high-quality op-amps and MKP capacitors in the signal path, large filtering capacitors in the power supply, and metal film resistors throughout the unit. The front panel features a balanced headphone out with a four-pin XLR connector and two unbalanced headphone outs with quarter-inch connectors, while the back panel is home to two unbalanced inputs and two unbalanced line outputs, all with gold-plated RCA connectors. The line outputs are internally switchable to three modes: passive feedthrough, active feedthrough with volume control (pre-fader), and active feedthrough with volume control (post-fader).
