This is the best solid state headphone amp on the planet
(Period.) when in balanced mode - and with the RELAY volume upgrade. Better
than Headamp GSX Mk2 (too bright) and better than Simaudio Moon Neo 430HA (too
laid back).
It can be shipped anywhere, and will work on both 115V and 230V. It is basically as new with all its original packaging, so can ship with peace of mind. It's still got 4 years of warranty!
My unit is fully upgraded - was bought new in June 2016 at a cost of US$3,290 (see: http://violectric-usa.com/hpa-v281):
1. 24/192 USB DAC - allowing it to be an all-in-one solidstate powerhouse
2. RELAY stepped volume control with remote control (custom
128-step relay version) - makes a BIG difference over the base model
3. Also functions as an excellent balanced preamp, so can be used with power amps/speaker setups too
4. Silver unit with silver feet
Selling because I need the $$$. I am happy to haggle within reason, and can declare any value you need for customs/import tax purposes.
Feel free to read the Inner Fidelity review, their
conclusion was:
"I count it right up there with the very best in
existence—HeadAmp GS-X mkII, some of the nicer Eddie Current models, and the
discontinued ECP L-2. All of these are statement pieces which I consider far
beyond the optimal price to performance ratio. Common sense would dictate we
spend a lot less and still get a very good amp—several more affordable
Violectric/Lake People models offer just that. However, at some point common
sense goes out the window, and we just want the absolute best available. If
that's your situation, the Violectric V281 deserves very serious
consideration—and a spot on our Wall of Fame."
