Headphone Amps

Headphone amplifiers are small, low-powered power amplifiers, often containing extra features such as DACs or DSP functions. They are intended specifically to drive one or more pairs of headphones, which of course require far less power than a full set of loudspeakers. Headphone amps are included within all devices which feature a headphone output socket, but built-in amps are not usually of great quality, and may not have sufficient power to drive all kinds of headphones - especially high-fidelity audiophile-grade headphones, or pro-audio studio-grade models.

Separate, dedicated stand-alone headphone amplifiers are a must-have item for any serious hi-fi enthusiast, and are an essential piece of equipment in any studio environment. In addition, some headphone designs (i.e. Electrostatics) cannot be driven by normal amps, and require special headphone amplifier units in order to function properly. Many computer users have also discovered that connecting a desktop headphone amplifier to their Mac or PC makes an enormous difference to the audio quality, making their working day a lot more enjoyable.
