The HA 300 combines my love of Headphones with a passion for Tube Amplifier design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 300B tube has long been known to produce the purest and most natural sound. It has gorgeous midrange and lush 3-Dimensionality. I have long been entranced by its sound, but found that 8W was not enough to drive many conventional loudspeaker designs.

Designed to provide 8 watts into 8 ohms, the tube amp is very happy driving the higher impedance loads of modern headphones, ranging from 23 ohm to 60 ohm, up to 600 ohm from brands such as Mr. Speaker, HiFiMan, Focal and Sennheiser for example. This means that the damping factor of the amp is higher, translating to superior low frequency response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower is the other factor. When we consider power requirements of even the most demanding of modern headphones, 8W is a lot of power!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen we set out to design a ‘Luxury’ Headphone amp, the 300B tube design just made sense!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a Class A, Single Ended Triode (\u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eSET\u003c\/span\u003e) amplifier with zero feedback, the HA 300 offers the beautiful midrange of direct heated triodes without sacrificing detail, dynamics or bass response.
