The Violectric HPA V324 is a high-performance, true-balanced analog headphone amplifier featuring an integrated high-quality preamplifier. Drawing on the award-winning engineering of Lake People, Violectric, and Niimbus, the HPA V324 delivers transparent, dynamic playback that meets the highest audiophile standards for both professional- and home-listening applications.
With four amplifier stages providing true-balanced operation, the HPA V324 delivers up to 5000mW of output power at 50 ohms, and 740mW at 600 ohms. It offers a wide range of connectivity options including balanced headphone outputs via 4-pin XLR and 4.4mm Pentaconn, and an unbalanced output via a 1/4" jack—accomodating a broad spectrum of headphones including low-impedance and planar magnetic designs.
Additionally, the amplifier is equipped with two pairs of balanced and unbalanced analog line inputs and outputs (XLR and RCA), allowing seamless integration with power amplifiers, active speakers, and other gear. Unique features such as front-panel Pre-Gain control, a remotely controllable motorized volume knob, and precision-calibrated VU meters ensure precise level monitoring and optimal performance.
To fully unlock the potential of balanced playback, the HPA V324 employs advanced circuitry with four independent amplifier stages—two for each channel—ensuring exact, distortion-free amplification. This results in exceptional clarity, dynamic range, and fidelity that meets the highest audiophile standards.
- Delayed ON, Instant OFF: Headphones are connected only after startup stabilization and are immediately disconnected upon shutdown.
- DC Monitoring: Constant monitoring for DC voltage at the output protects your headphones from potential damage by disengaging the circuit if necessary.
- Overload Protection: Power consumption is continuously measured, and headphones are disconnected if predefined thresholds are exceeded.
- Ultra-Low Noise: Achieved through minimal internal gain, rendering amplifier noise virtually inaudible.
- High Output Voltage: Powered by a 50V internal rail, providing ample headroom for high-impedance headphones.
- Massive Output Power: Robust amplification stages drive even the most demanding headphones—ideal for low-impedance and planar magnetic designs.
- Exceptional Damping Factor: Ultralow output impedance ensures tight control over headphone drivers, preserving tonal accuracy and frequency response.
