Why buy from us?

SPL Phonitor xe Headphone Amplifier and DAC

Phonitor Matrix, Volume remote control, VU meter in retro look,  premium DA converter and the preeminent VOLTAiR technology make the Phonitor xe the best headphone amplifier of our time.

Suitable for all headphones

The Phonitor xe offers connections for a standard headphone with a stereo jack plug and for balanced-driven headphones using a  4-pol XLR jack. If you like to avoid the headphone cable hanging off the front you may want to use the connectors on the back of the Phonitor xe.

Volume Remote Control

The volume can be remote controlled with any infrared remote control, that the Phonitor xe simply learns

The DAC768

The highly acclaimed AKM AK4490 Velvet Sound™ premium DAC chip is used as the converter chip in the optional digital-to-analogue converter, which thanks to its new architecture reproduces the finest sound details. It converts PCM audio with a resolution of 32 bits and a sampling rate of up to 768kHz, which is equivalent to 16 times CD resolution. Direct Stream Digital is also supported up to a resolution of DSD4 or DSD256.
