We all know that when we listen to pure Class A amps such as the AMS35i or AMS50 that the sound is incredible. It is richer, fuller, smoother and the bottom end is more extended. That's why the reputation of pure Class A amplifiers remains so strong; they really are the best thing.
Musical Fidelity has a long history of making superlative headphone amplifiers. The M1 HPA pure Class A headphone amp has exactly the same sonic characteristics with headphones as our pure Class A amplifiers with loudspeakers. It sounds fantastic.
The M1 HPA pure Class A headphone amp's technical performance is outstanding. Distortion is incredibly low (less than .0005% across the band) frequency response is ruler flat. Noise ratio is outstanding. In every technical parameter the M1 pure Class A headphone amp is outstanding.
The HPA has very low output impedance (below 1 ohm). Headphone amps' output impedance is a usually ignored but very important measurement. The HPA's extraordinary low output impedance means that it can drive any headphone with complete linearity and low distortion. The vast majority of competitive headphone amplifiers cannot do this because they have much higher output impedance.
We believe that neutrality and complete faithfulness to the original recording is what hi-fi exists for. If you agree with that ideal then the HPA pure Class A headphone amp is for you.
The HPA has two inputs; line and USB (from computers etc.). It has two headphone sockets on the front panel and a loop out facility.
Importantly the HPA also has a variable line output so that it can be used as a very high quality simple preamp.

International Delivery Service and VAT;
Custom Cable will use Royal Mail International Signed For worldwide for all items less than 2.0kgs. Items more than 2.0kgs are sent using Parcel Force Worldwide. For countries in the EU delivery times are estimated between 3-7 working days and slightly longer for all countries outside of the EU.
Customers in certain countries are also able to choose Royal Mail International Airsure. Airsure® is generally a day faster than standard Airmail and can be tracked online. Which means the aim is:
2 working days after posting to Western Europe
4 working days after posting to Eastern Europe and postal subsidiaries (Islands and Principalities)
6 working days after posting to the rest of the world
The above standards are monitored by the independent and impartial International Post Corporation to ensure reliable and consistent delivery, which is why Airsure® is only available to selected countries.
Please note that Airsure® is an upmarket mail, not a courier service. This means we cannot provide a guaranteed or certain delivery time, nor can we offer compensation for delays or missing Track & Trace information.
Prices for International Delivery are available at checkout and are specific for the delivery destination, please see here after adding your product to your cart.
