Violectric HPA V280-FE Desktop Headphone Amplifier

The HPA V280-FE was developed with the aim of ensuring the highest transmission quality on low-, medium- and high-impedance headphones. These can also be symmetrical! Like its “big brother” (HPA V281), the HPA V280 also uses our acclaimed V200 amplifier technology for a neutral but still unusually warm playback.

– Input selector on rear panel for RCA or XLR
– 4 power amplifiers with V200 technology
– 1 sym. Headphone jack, 4-pin XLR
– 2 unsym. Headphone connections – lowest noise
– Highest output voltage (60 Volt internal operating voltage)
– Strongest output (best suited for low-impedance headphones – also magnetostats)
– Highest damping factor
– Pre-gain (5-fold pre-amplification)
– Channel-separated structure
– DC coupled (can be switched off)
– ALPS RK27 high-grade volume control
– High quality OpAmps in the signal path
– ALPS RK27 high grade balance regulator
– High quality MKP capacitors in the signal path
– 0.1% and 1% metal film resistors throughout the device
– Discretely constructed power amplifiers with 8 transistors per channel
– 2 headphone jacks, Neutrik, silver plated
– Delayed connection / disconnection of the headphone connections via relay
– Two toroidal transformer
– High sieve capacity in the power supply
– Ground lift switchable

Optionally 6 different digital inputs are available:
Coaxial, Optical or USB with up to 96 kHz or 192 kHz Sample rate.

The HPA V280 can be equipped with one of 6 different digital inputs:
