6. Key Features
The AUDALYTIC HP70 is engineered with advanced features for superior audio performance:
Visual summary of the AUDALYTIC HP70's main features.
- Fully Balanced Discrete Class A Amplifier: Utilizes 4 pairs of power transistors for ample driving power and superior control. This discrete design allows for precise fine-tuning and offers enhanced development potential, delivering a wider range of sonic characteristics. The post-ampkusimudzira stage can be disabled, allowing the unit to function as a dedicated pure preamplifier.
- Pure Preamp Kushanda Iyo yekutangaamp uses two socketed LME49720 dual op-amps. The preamp output can be disabled for seamless switching between headphone and speaker modes.
- Fully Balanced Input Stage: A single-ended to balanced conversion circuit ensures RCA inputs benefit from full balanced drive performance.
- Built-in Low-Noise Power Supply: Features a 30VA low-noise power supply and also accepts an external 15-18V DC power input for flexibility.
- Zvakawanda-stage Voltage Regulation: Designed with multiple independent voltage regulation circuits to minimize ripple noise and reduce interference, resulting in cleaner audio reproduction.
- R-2R Relay Volume Control: Provides lossless precision adjustment with guaranteed channel matching across all 4 paths. Adjustable gain from 0 to 28dB allows matching with various headphones.
