The Niimbus HPA US 5 Pro is a headphone amplifiers that offer nothing less than flawless signal amplification for any headphone. In addition, and this must be explicitly emphasized, this new solution of the Niimbus Ultimate Series is also intended to be suitable as a preamplifier.

These headphone amplifiers, from the sister company of Violectric – created by Lake People, rely on an innovative pre-gain setting with a wide control range from -18 to +24 dB, which ensures low internal gain factors and lowest noise at all headphone impedances. At the same time, the four powerful amplifier stages with an output power of up to 7,000 mW into 50 ohms and a lush output voltage of 32 V RMS into 600 ohms drive both high- and low-impedance listeners with equal aplomb. The low output impedance ensures a high damping factor, which, together with the elaborate power supply with two toroidal transformers and a capacitor capacity of over 50,000 µF, should ensure accurate transient response, maximum dynamics and minimal distortion under all operating conditions.
