Violectric HPA V222
Balanced Headphone Amplifier
With the HPA V222, German manufacturer Violectric has created a truly balanced headphone amplifier, designed with four amplifier stages and not just balanced connectors.
Plenty of power for any headphones
The fundamental circuit design is derived from the award-winning predecessors, the V200 and V281, and the sound signature is natural, smooth, and pleasant. The Violectric HPA V222 is not only incredibly powerful – it also boasts an extremely low noise level, thanks to a minimal gain design, making the amplifier’s noise inaudible. Internally, the Violectric HPA V222 operates at a 50V, making it ideal for high-impedance headphones. With powerful output amplifiers capable of delivering much more power than even the most demanding headphones require, this headphone amplifier is the obvious choice for demanding headphones.
RCA and XLR analog inputs
The Violectric HPA V222 is a dedicated headphone amplifier. All other features have been omitted, leaving only its primary function – delivering high-level sound to your headphones. It has only two sets of analog inputs – one set of RCA and one set of XLR – and you won’t find any digital inputs here. If you want to connect, for example, a computer, you’ll need to add a DAC. The input selector on the front panel provides quick access to switch between the two inputs. On the output side, there are three headphone outputs to choose from: a standard 6.3mm, a balanced 4-pin XLR, and a 4.4mm balanced Pentaconn output. So, regardless of what type of connector your headphones have, they can be connected here.
