Engineered to deliver high-fidelity sound quality in a compact, desktop form-factor, the HPA V202 Headphone Amplifier from Violectric is an attractively priced solution geared toward the beginner audiophile. The high damping factor makes the HPA V202 a smart choice for difficult to drive headphones, and the ultralow-noise operation pairs well with the 60V internal operating voltage provide incredible detail and optimal performance on both high- and low-impedance models.

The elegantly crafted amp offers both unbalanced 1/4" and unbalanced 4.4mm Pentaconn front-panel headphone jacks along with a large 38mm volume dial with an Alps RK 27 attenuator. An input switch lets you easily toggle between the balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA inputs on the rear panel. Also on the back are dip switches that allow you to set pre-gain levels from -18 to +18 dB to create a perfect match for your headphones.
