DACS Audio Headlite-4 Overview

Give your talent the very best headphone signal for tracking and overdubs with the DACS Audio HeadLite 4, a professional 4-channel headphone amp that provides accurate, clear, and detailed sound reproduction of the whole audible frequency range.

The HeadLite 4 can drive most headphones without issue. For extremely power-hungry headphones, channel 1 is outfitted with the +Power analog plug-in module which provides 4W of ultra-clean drive. Additional +Power modules are available for the other three channels, allowing you to upgrade any channel for the best performance.

Clarity, Flexibility, +Power
Clarity and Sound Quality

  • Whatever the headphone task, the quality of the end-product begins with what the artist hears. Accurate, clear, and detailed reproduction of the whole audible frequency range is essential; any shortcomings will inevitably affect both the overdub and the overview. HeadLite 4 maintains the HeadLite series’ worldwide reputation for clarity and detail.

Optimum Drive

  • The metering on the four buses that feed the amplifiers allows you to set the input levels to optimum, ensuring the input to the amplifier gives the best output to headphones.

+Power

  • +Power is an analog plug-in module that provides as much ultraclean drive for even the most power-hungry headphones. Fitted as standard in Channel 1, +Power can be added to the other channels at the time of ordering or retrofitted later.

Power and Drive

  • Amplifier power is not just about level (sound-pressure level), it is about clean level (sonically pure level). A cheap headphone amplifier, when pushed beyond its narrow limits, can begin to distort before your headphones or your ears. This not only compromises the sound, but it can also damage your hearing. A headphone amp, which has enough power, should be cruising for its entire usable range, the output signal is always as clean as the technical specifications indicate it should be
  • The power of the output on the standard channels is more than sufficient to drive virtually any headphone clean and loud at any impedance. +Power provides drive to spare for taking low-impedance high-power headphones to the peak of their performance. It also allows you to drive multiple higher-impedance phones.
