SPL Phonitor 2 Headphone Amp

The SPL Phonitor 2 is an improved version of the legendary Phonitor headphone amp with major improvements including a new monitor controller.

The SPL Phonitor 2 has grown into a fully-fledged monitor controller with preamps for three different sources. Sources 1 and 2 use two XLR inputs while source three uses stereo Phono inputs. In addition, the Phonitor lets you monitor through your headphones as well as monitors via a three-way toggle switch which also functions as Mute. The SPL Phonitor 2 has been optimised for low-impedance headphones (10-40 Ohm) but performs equally as well on high impedance headphones.

Another improvement includes the 120-volt technology which has been revisited to offer even higher performance offering measurements far surpassing other headphone amplifiers and setting a new standard in sound quality through headphones.

The SPL Phonitor still features its crossfeed technology to recreate the effect of stereo in your headphones. In addition, a comprehensive monitoring control including mono, solo and polarity switch allows you to monitor mono and stereo signals independently. A laterality control is also included to compensate for hearing imbalances.
