HA3D : Incredible value, Superb sound

10 years ago

Possibly the best value headphone amp on the market, the HA3D isn't feature packed and offers limited connectivity, but for the right user it may be all you need.

I bought this to sit in my hi-fi rig alongside a couple of other headamps, the excellent ART Pro Audio Heampamp6 and the new Behringer Monitor2USB which has a crossfeed function. The Superlux trounces both in terms of sound, even right out of the box. Used on battery power it is absolutely silent to my ears, through a pair of Sennheiser HD800S's. It's compact and very solidly built, although it does look a bit industrial.

PRO's

Brilliant value

Battery powered (can be used with a mains adapter - not inlcuded)

3 TRS headphone outputs with individual volume controls

Solid build

Excellent sound quality with wide freq. response

Balanced (XLR) and unbalanced 1/4" and 1/8" stereo inputs

Loop out to connect additional units

CON's

Nothing at this price!

Just be aware there are no balance, bass & treble adjustment or mono function for critical studio listening. If that suits then I thoroughly recommend this unit and for the other functions there are plenty of rack size units which would happily complement the HA3D
