Millenium HPA In Ear 4-stars Reviews

Well built and solid

I purchased this to be build into a custom Rack unit, so the first thing was obviously to take it apart. It's surprisingly well build for the price with good workmanship. Can't think of flaws yet 'cause it is not used as originally intended :-)

Well built but not very loud

Very solid unit with simple but sufficient features, my only issue is that I can't get a lot of volume out of it (into Sennheiser in-ear monitor earphones). Whilst this may be due to a low input level the behaviour of the active loudspeakers other band members use for foldback suggests that there is plenty of signal.

Good entry to IEM

I bought this product to test the waters with regards to switching to IEM.

It's reasonably specced, with two line/mic inputs that can be switched between mono and stereo mix modes. What it does lack, is a brickwall limiter which is found on more expensive models, so you do slightly run the ricks of an unexpected volume spike.

Soundwise, for the money it is great, and the individual volume controls mean that it is possible to have a decent amount of control over your mix.

Build quality seems pretty good too, the inputs are good and the whole unit is pretty solidly put together (mine is now mounted on my pedalboard)

Overall a great 'way in' to the world of iem without spending huge amount of cash, so you can decide whether or not it is for you.

Not a bad option for those on a budget

This is an easy to use, no frills IEM amp. It works and it's fairly sturdy. Doesn't have the same build quality of sound clarity as the higher-end units but that's to be expected. If you're on a budget, this is a fairly reliable item to go for.

Great wired in ear monitor system.

We bought one of these for our drummer (the noisy one...) as he didn't need a wireless system and despite its low cost, it works pefectly.I it was wireless, i'd have given it 5 stars for features. basic, simple, reliable and does it's job!

Sturdy, simple, good basic features

I bought this to use with Shure SE215-CL in-ear monitors. It revolutionalised playing gigs completely. Being a cello player I need to be able to hear exactly what I'm doing and it prooved very difficult with normal monitors. This devices enables me to control what I hear - and thanks to the 2 inputs, even when there's only one general monitor mix available from the desk, I can take a line from my cello DI's 2nd output into the Millenium HPA's 2nd input and blend the two to however suits me. It takes a while to get used to being stationary, and I would find a wireless setup way more flexible, but this is a decent quality affordable start for in-ear monitoring. It's a sturdy build as well so expect it to last.

A great alternative

I use this for monitoring my bass on stage and have found it really useful. I can also take a monitor feed from the PA on larger gigs. Seems to be the best non-wireless system available.
