Really nice headphone amp. Sounds great on pretty much any headphone I tried on it (HE1000v1, HE1000v2, Ether Flow's, Focal Utopia). This is a true balanced headphone amp with 4 internal amplifiers. The output impedance is extremely low, so the damping factor is very high (= precise control of the diaphragms). The amp is very powerful with adjustable gain, so it's terrific regardless of the sensitivity of your headphones.
also check out the specs:
Freq Resp: 0-55kHz (-0.5dB) = ruler flat
Dynamic Range: >128dB = wow
THD+N @ 1W: 0.0004%
Shipping: $14.95 flat to CONUS, includes insurance, and proper packing
Only reason I'm selling this awesome amp is I upgraded to a Mcintosh headphone amp and I don't need 2 amps!
Condition: 9/10 conservatively. Personally, it looks like basically brand new.

V181 contains four amplifiers (2 x stereo) to enable proper driving of balanced headphones.
Due to its specific, variable and low-noise and distortion circuit design especially optimised for dynamic headphones, the HPA V181 fulfils even highest demands.
