 Here is the company that pretty much started the trend of today's Audiophile
headphone amplifiers,... HeadRoom! This is a legendary HeadRoom Balanced Home Amp,
which was the last of the full size amp models, prior to the company deciding to
stop amplifier manufacturing. (Their production costs to make these was very
high). Please find additional great reviews and specifications on the internet.
You may also find information from HeadRoom's Archive site. These are considered
to be one of the best sounding, best built headphone amps/pre-amps that money
can buy. Built like a tank, weighing in at a whopping 18 lbs, it uses the
highest quality dual power supplies, caps, op-amps and attenuator. It is capable
of driving up to FOUR sets of standard un-balanced headphones, or TWO sets of
balanced headphones. Being a true balanced design, it has twice the voltage
swing, twice the slew rate, 4 times the output power and a lower noise floor
than your typical headphone pre-amp. It can be used with EITHER unbalanced OR
balanced headphones. This unit has all of the best and most costly upgrades,
except the optional built-in DAC. It has the very expensive MAX MODULE upgrade,
the black and gold class -A module OPA 627 Op-Amps...the best made! It also has
the optional STEPPED ATTENUATOR upgrade, for ultimate tracking,
separation, durability and sonics. 24 positions with heavy gold plating for
decades of listening. This unit offers Headrooms unique Crossfeed circuit, which
dramatically improves headphone imaging. (It can be bypassed by the switch on
front if desired, but most leave it on for headphoe use). It also has a
bypassable, 2-position brightness filter, for subtle tone improvements. It has 3
different, selectable gain settings, which can be handy for driving different
sensitivity headphones or amplifiers, using the pre-amp outputs on the rear.
Speaking of pre-amp outputs, this is not just a world-class headphone amp, but
also a world class balanced OR single-ended (RCA) pre-amp as well! Quite
frankly, I have found it to be the best sounding pre-amp I have ever had in my
system. The Max module and stepped attenuator upgrades have a lot to do with why
it sounds so good. The detail and huge, 3-D soundstage this unit puts out is
second to none! As a pre-amp alone, I found it to sound equal to or better than
my previous favorite Bent Audio Tap-X passive, and that is saying a LOT about
how transparent and detailed this unit is! This unit offers TWO sets of
unbalanced (RCA) inputs, and one set of true balanced inputs. It has one set of
RCA outputs and one set of balanced outputs. All of the RCA input and output
jacks are very high quality Cardas rhodium plated jacks, and the balanced
inpuits and outputs are gold plated Neutrics.

This is basically identical to the top of the line Max Balanced Amp in their
lineup, except in the Balanced Home Amp label. With all the upgrades, this unit
was well over $3,000 when new from the factory. It is in excellent condition all
around, showing very little wear or use. No scratches or dings...looks
fantastic! Owner's manual is included. Feel free to e-mail me with any questions
