The AMP-05 Special Edition Headphone Amplifier is designed to enhance that experience. Tailored for music enthusiasts who appreciate the finer details in sound, the AMP-05 allows listeners to connect high-fidelity headphones through its versatile inputs, including XLR 4-pin, 6.3mm Jack, and the Pentacon 4.4mm socket. Notably, only one pair of headphones can be connected at a time, ensuring a focused and immersive listening experience.
Aesthetic and Durable Design
Crafted from a single, high-quality aluminum block, the amplifier’s chassis not only exudes durability but also contributes to its sleek aesthetic. This attention to detail is evident in the design, which incorporates a delayed headphone switching system. This unique feature ensures that the amplifier enters standby mode a few seconds after being powered on, allowing for a smooth transition into your listening session.
Optimized Performance
Optimized for performance, the AMP-05 is powered by a 16V AC power supply that is included with the device. The amplifier operates as two separate, isolated mono channels, each with its own dedicated power supply for the left and right channels. This design choice enhances the clarity and separation of sound, making it ideal for a range of musical genres, from opera and classical to jazz, rock, and pop.
Class A Power Stage
One of the standout features of the AMP-05 is its power stage, which operates in Class A mode, mirroring the warm characteristics typically associated with tube amplifiers. This design choice is complemented by meticulous assembly processes that employ both Through-Hole Technology (THT) and Surface-Mount Device (SMD) technology. Each THT component is hand-selected and paired, ensuring that only the highest quality elements contribute to the amplifier’s performance.
Versatile Audio Companion
The AMP-05 is not just a headphone amplifier; it is a versatile audio companion capable of working with various line signal devices such as CD players, tuners, DAT players, DACs, and tape recorders. This flexibility allows users to integrate the AMP-05 seamlessly into their existing audio setups.
Personalized Sophistication
Adding a touch of personalization, the Special Edition of the AMP-05 features additional decorative elements that can be customized in various colors to suit the customer’s taste. The gold version showcased in the accompanying images exemplifies the sophisticated design that makes this amplifier not just a tool for listening, but a statement piece for any audio enthusiast.
