The Phonitor se again performs in the next highest quality class. It behaves as an audiophile amplifier should: tonally balanced and neutral, high-resolution, noise-free, with superior dynamics and, of course, reserves that deliver sufficient levels even with quieter tuned designs.
Our entry model into the world of VOLTAiR headphone amplifiers.
The Phonitor se is focused on the essentials – without compromising on quality.
It has the same audio signal amplification as its bigger brothers Phonitor x and Phonitor xe.
With the optional DA converter, it can also play from digital sources.
The Phonitor Matrix provides two of the most common Phonitor Matrix settings as switchable presets. It lets you experience music on headphones as being played back through speakers.
Thanks to VOLTAiR technology in the highest sound quality.
