Austrian Audio Launches Premium Reference Headphones and Preamp Through Dedicated Distribution Channel

Austrian Audio discretely unveiled its two first new products targeting high end audio enthusiasts at the CanJam SoCal 2023 show in Orange County: The Composer headphones and the Full Score One dedicated headphone preamplifier. Two interesting designs from a company with serious credentials. The two new luxury products are now going to be available through VANA in the US, a dedicated distributor for the hifi and high end channels.

Increasing the options for those wanting to upgrade their music source options for high-quality headphones, Naim Audio has launched Uniti Atom Headphone Edition – a headphone-optimized version of its original Uniti Atom music streaming system. Unlike traditional headphone amplifiers and DACs, which require a separate computer or streaming device, the new Uniti Atom Headphone Edition is a fully formed music-streaming system: just add headphones.

Schiit Audio announced the Jotunheim 2 modular, differential headphone amplifier and preamplifier. This updated model builds on the success of the original Jotunheim, now with higher power output and additional versatility. It also incorporates Schiit's unique Nexus fully discrete, differential topology and debuts Schiit's Continuity S output stage, which offers higher efficiency and improved linearity. Jotunheim 2 retains the same price as the original Jotunheim, starting at $399 with no optional module installed.
