SPL products are respected worldwide for their innovative approach and user-friendliness, but most of all for their performance. The new SPL Phonitor One headphone amplifier is the most affordable ever from the brand, allowing high-quality monitoring of analog sources. Thanks to the Phonitor Matrix with Crossfeed control, the user can create mixes that sound as if they were mixed on speakers. An analog volume controller, an aluminum front panel and a high-end metal housing show that no compromises have been made in terms of quality.
The Phonitor One d model features the acclaimed AKM AK4490 Velvet Sound premium chip in the digital-to-analog converter stage, which means that users are now able to combine a great quality headphone amplifier with a great USB DAC and get really high end sound reproduction. The new product supports PCM signals up to 32-bit/768 kHz and Direct Stream Digital up to DSD4 playback, leaving nothing to be desired. And the balanced stereo line output means that the Phonitor One d can be also used as a stand-alone DAC for perfect integration.
"I am excited that with the Series One we have developed a new product line for the ambitious sound creator. It was a challenge to bring the famous SPL sound to this series – I'm really proud of the result – it's something you can hear and see,” states Jens Gronwald, SPL Developer.
