dCS Lina Headphone Amplifier (Silver Finish)

dCS Lina Deep Dive, Part 1: Drive -- An in-depth look at the design of the Lina Headphone Amplifier, exploring how dCS' engineers set out to create a versatile amp that can drive even the most demanding headphones to their full potential.

This powerful solid state, Class AB amplifier is engineered to drive a vast range of headphones - from planars to sensitive IEMS - to their full potential. With its low noise floor, wide bandwidth, vast dynamic range, and excellent linearity, it delivers all of the sonic benefits you’d expect from a dCS product, and is designed to complement virtually any headfi setup.
