Kinki Studio THR 1 Headphone Amplifier
Taxes & Shipping Included
The VISION THR-1 headphone amplifier is capable of powering any type of headphone with its RMS output power rating of 2.2W at 300Ω and 1.3W at 600Ω. It includes three headphone output jacks, consisting of two Neutrik 6.3mm single ended jacks for low and high impedance headphones, respectively, and one balanced Neutrik 4-Pin jack for use with balanced headphones, providing added convenience.
The THR-1 is known for its neutral sound reproduction, delivering a balanced frequency response with minimal coloration. The oversized EXICON MOSFET Output Transistors ensure strong control, micro-dynamics, micro-contrast, and excellent drive, which is particularly notable when driving the demanding AKG K1000 headphones.
The THR-1 is capable of reproducing music with the AKG K1000 and demanding headphones exceptionally well.
The THR-1 includes a toggle switch located next to the volume pot that allows it to be used as a preamp. When switched to preamp mode, the headphone output is bypassed and the volume pot controls the volume of the preamp output, effectively turning it into a passive preamp.
Kinki Studio's design philosophy was focused on achieving both neutrality and musicality. The goal was to produce a sound signature that was rich in tonal quality, provided vivid sound imaging, details, high resolution, and dynamic range.
This was achieved through the careful selection of high-quality components, thoughtful design, and meticulous tuning. The resulting sound signature is unique to KINKI STUDIO's gear and represents the pinnacle of their engineering prowess.
