EternalArts Headphone Amplifier  OTL-KHV Professional

 

 

 

 
OTL headphone amplifier with balanced input  for professional recording studios The EternalArts OTL headphone amplifier, the transfer of genius Futterman idea to tube amplifiers for high end headphones. · A compact tube amplifier building block for the connection of two Headphones in the powder-coated steel housing with perforated Aluminium cover, transparent acrylic front, turned from acrylic glass Volume knob and slip-resistant silicone rubber feet

· Developed with and optimized for high-end headphones from HD800 SENNHEISER
· Balanced inputs selected with input transformers EternalArts
· Optimization to operate with two sets of headphones and low Headphones> 20 ohms
· Separate channel circuit design with 4 tubes: 2 selected EternalArts triode-pentode, 2 stabilizer tubes gain independent stable anode voltages of the amplifier tubes
· Platinum-supported structure with gold, 70μ-sided laminated

Conductors
· Molded Transtec much voltage transformer in toroidal  Protection technology with winding between primary and secondary Winding packages
· High-quality components selected, classic blue ALPSPoti,  gold-plated headphone jacks, XLR connectors
· In many cases, secured, totally stable circuit for maximum security and high tube life
· Large bandwidth and rapid pulse train
·
Circuit Description

A potentiometer the signal reaches the grid of the triode  The triode-pentode. At its cathode is an RC network with R adjustable to control the gain of the triode can. The
Anode then controls via an RC element, the control grid of the pentode. Through the cathode follower circuit is a low internal resistance achieved. At the cathode, then the signal is coupled out, wherein be eliminated by a capacitor dc components.  The outputs are protected by a fast fuse, two Zener diodes are used as surge protection for the headphones.
A special feature is a stabilizer tube is in the circuit, the anode voltage of the triode-pentode, regardless of their Modulation constant. The latter is heated by dc
 


RC circuit and double buffering. Her screen grid is a  RC-screening supplies. The goal was an absolute hum-free operation of the headphone amplifier.
For the placement of new pipes from old stock resorted to strictly for professional use be selected.
