Little Labs - Monotor 2-channel Headphone Amplifier

The audiophile headphone amp for professional audio engineers The Little Labs Monotor is an audiophile headphone amplifier designed for audio engineers with state of the art active stage per channel and passive circuit topology.

The Little Labs Monotor uses a high fidelity audio path with hand wound, low distortion transformers with transformer coupled inputs. In addition it boasts a full-voltage low-noise, linear on board regulators. This results in a huge dynamic range and the ability to drive high impedance headphones without loss of volume and no noticeable hiss.

The Monotor features extensive mono monitoring options, letting you monitor either the left or right channel independently or the sum of both L+R. A Phase L-R lets you hear the sides as well giving you a full display of your stereo.

at a glance • A fully differential, almost entirely passive circuit path, with audio passing through a single active optimum gain stage per output. This circuit topology allows maximum revealing source analysis. Think reverb tails, edits, breaths, details that you have never noticed before.
• Extensive mono monitoring capability: left plus right, left, right, and even left minus right, for phase check, azimuth, and digital compressed audio file artifact analysis.
• Internal state of the art super low noise linear voltage regulation, with huge reservoir power supply capacitance providing audiophile full current/voltage for accurate, robust defined lows and highs.
• External custom made for audio bipolar global switching power supply with beef, plenty of current and power reserve.
• Rack-mountable: Up to 4 Little Labs devices fit in a 1u space.
• Built in California.

JUSTIN PERKINS - MYSTERY ROOM MASTERING"I was just today thinking today about how damn good and transparent this thing sounds. I proof every mastering project on headphones using this headphone amp."

TOM FINE - TAPE OP #117"With the Monotor, Little Labs has provided the audio professional the right tool for this job, and the most transparent-sounding headphone amp I've ever heard."

DAN JOHNSON - UNITED RECORDING ACADEMY"After several weeks of putting it through its paces, the Little Labs Monotor headphone amp has proven itself to be an indispensable part of my archiving chain. Whether I'm adjusting azimuth on the tape machine, checking phase, or listening for anomalies within the transfer of priceless master recordings, the level of clarity and amount of functions the Monotor provides makes it easy to get the job done. Great work, Little Labs."
