Description

With the A 20 you will rediscover your dynamic headphones.
This new headphone amplifier from beyerdynamic is perfect for all headphone applications and provides dual outputs for shared listening with a partner.
SUPERIOR SOUND
The circuit of the A20 is designed based on our legendary A 1 reference headphone amplifier. The discrete output stage provides plenty of power even for  high-impedance headphones while the dynamic, open and precise sound sets the A 20 apart from what can be found in the normal output stages of  regular amplifiers or receivers. This is confirmed by its first-class circuitry and excellent technical specifications that provide a balanced sound for long periods of comfortable listening.
HIGH BUILD-QUALITY AND NICE LOOKS
Made of brushed aluminum, the housing of the A 20 is especially solid and resonance-free. Due to the innovative chassis design, no screws are visible on the external surfaces. Equipped with an original ALPS potentiometer for variable volume control, a knob turned from solid aluminum completes the attractive yet robust look of this amplifier.
SIMPLE AND FLEXIBLE
With a high-gain RCA input, the A 20 works easily with most sources. The input signal can be looped through and is entirely free from signal-loss thanks to the hard-wired RCA output. Due to the built-in power supply, which is connected via a detachable power cord (supplied), no external power supply is needed avoiding disturbing background noise. Thanks to the dual headphone jacks on the front, two people can listen to the A 20 together without an adapter cable.
• Two 6.35 mm headphone outputs
• Elegant and solid all-metal housing
• Particularly open, transparent sound
• Also suitable for 600 Ohms headphones

Bricasti M7 - version 3.0

...figure out how to market it. So 20 years is a luxury that I have earned. I said the M7 would be a 20 year product. After 12 years and 8600 M7s sold to date that looks possible. I hope everyone has at least a 20 year horizon on their hopes or dreams for a...

Roland VAs - which one?

...away from that at all. Can actually be quite useful at times. As a whole package it's pretty amazing to be a 20 year old digital synth. Man I wish Roland would split up and sell their tiny interesting division to someone less sabotaged by the misguided opinions of marketing departments and other such influences...

Roland VAs - which one?

It’s all good. One thing to bear in mind is that the Vsynth has high quality waveforms which eat more polyphony so there are at least options. I have no experience with the JP8000 but one thing I notice about the Vsynth is that I use the compressor and EQ on every patch and then, it...
