S.M.S.L SH-8s Powerful Balanced Headphone Amplifier Released

Along with the recently announced S.M.S.L SU-8s Balanced MQA DAC, S.M.S.L has also announced a powerful balanced headphone amplifier the all-new S.M.S.L SH-8s. It is a high-resolution headphone amplifier capable of producing 6W of tremendously powerful output. It features a specially designed Precision Linear Feedback Circuit that helps the SH-8s maintain ultra-low levels of distortion at such high output levels. SH-8s follows the traditional classical look of S.M.S.L headphone amplifiers featuring retro-style toggle switches for on/off, input, and gain functions.

Tremendously Powerful:-

S.M.S.L SH-8s is a tremendously powerful headphone amplifier. It outputs up to 6Wx2 of power at 16 ohms of load, at 32 ohms it outputs up to 3W of power. Pair your demanding headphones with the SH-8s and hear them shine with a clean powerful output.

Two-Level Gain Mode:-

SH8s features two-level gain modes to pair sensitive as well as demanding headphones. At low-gain mode, the gain level is at 0dB which gets thrust to +17.5dB at high-gain mode.
