The new Violectric HPA V222 Headphone Amplifier is a true balanced 4-stage amp geared toward the beginner audiophile. The high damping factor makes the HPA V222 a smart choice for difficult to drive headphones, and the ultralow-noise operation pairs well with the 50V internal operating voltage provide incredible detail and optimal performance on both high- and low-impedance models.
The elegantly crafted amp offers both balanced 4-pin XLR and balanced 4.4mm Pentaconn headphone connectors along with an unbalanced 1/4" option. The front panel also sports a large 38mm volume dial with an Alps RK 27 attenuator. An input switch lets you easily toggle between the balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA inputs on the rear panel. Also on the back are dip switches that allow you to set pre-gain levels from -18 to +18 dB to create a perfect match for your headphones.
The V226 is the same as the V222 and includes a Dac:
The V226 features a powerful DAC hardware via its Cirrus-based CS43131 DAC chip which supports 32-bit PCM decoding and an impressive 130 dB dynamic range. Through USB-C, sample rates as high as 384 kHz PCM and DSD256 can be achieved.
