Austrian Audio Full Score One

Austrian Audio Full Score One

Headphone Amplifier

Designed for High-Sensitivity Headphones Alongside their wonderfully sounding The Composer headphones, Austrian Audio has developed Full Score One, a completely analog headphone amplifier that pairs excellently with high-sensitivity headphones. It’s not for users who crave buttons and numerous features, but instead, you get balanced inputs and outputs and an amplifier that truly delivers impressive sound quality for the price, along with superb build quality.

Powerful Headphone Amplifier

The Austrian Audio Full Score One has plenty of power on board and can drive even difficult headphones, but it truly shines with sensitive headphones, as the volume scale's gain is adjusted accordingly. This means it increases slowly, making it easy to find the exact comfortable listening level you desire, and only rises quickly when playing at high volumes. Once you get used to this luxury, it's hard to go back.

Luxurious Sound Quality

Luxurious is also an apt description of the sound quality, and when you hear Full Score One without knowing the price, you’d likely guess higher. It plays neutrally, with a solid grip on the bass, which is clean and deep across the octaves. There is plenty of resolution to satisfy even very critical listeners, with precision and a soundstage scale that feels almost limitless. The dynamics are excellent on both micro and macro levels, and in the same spirit as The Composer, it tells you what you’re listening to without any effort. In other words, you get an effortless and distortion-free monitoring amplifier, which only reveals its small colorations and imbalances when compared to much more expensive equipment.
