Highlighted Features

Balanced Output up to 3000mW
With 4-pin XLR and 4.4mm balanced outputs, up to 3000mW of power can be achieved, easily and beautifully driving headphones with an impedance tolerance of 16-600Ω for more details in all frequencies.

USB DAC Decoding
TA-22 supports USB decoding with connection to computer, mobile device (iOS + Android), tablet, HiFi audio player, and other devices. Dual ESS ES9038Q2M professional DAC chips are used to process the left and right channels independently. The resulting audio has lower distortion, higher SNR, improved resolution and more detailed performance.

Optical + COAX Decoding
Coaxial and optical fiber decoding is supported with various desktop or portable players with the adoption of the AK4118 receiver chip, supporting up to PCM 24Bit/384kHz + DSD128.

Bluetooth 5.1
The TA-22 weighs in with Bluetooth 5.1 using Qualcomm's QCC5125 chip. SBC, AAC, aptX, aptX LL, aptX HD, and LDAC are all supported.

Analog Tube Warmth
TA-22 uses dual 12AU7 miniature 9-pin, medium-gain, dual-triode vacuum tubes for a sweet, refined sound. TA-22 also features tube-preamp out, so enjoy tube-based quality audio when connected to your amplifier and speakers.

Hybrid Tube + Transistor Design
TA-22 adopts transistors for Class A buffering, yielding strong output power to easily drive any headphone type. The hybrid tube and transistor pairing brings exquisite, soft sound along with explosive force and speed in your music delivery.

Double Active Crystal Oscillator
TA-22 uses double active low phase noise crystals for a more accurate DAC conversion targeted for varying sample rates.

R-Core Transformer
Customized, imported R-Core transformer for higher efficiency and lower noise.

Enthusiast Capacitance
Customized metal polyester film capacitors are used for duct output, complete with enthusiast-grade Japanese ELNA capacitance for coupling, resulting in a transparent and sweet sound. Enthusiast-grade Japanese NICHICON was chosen for the main filter capacitance for smoothness and superb high-frequency.

Phenomenal Sound

I recently stopped by Bloom Audio to test out the TA-22 and multiple pairs of headphones. This is my first headphone amp and headphones but I have been an audiophile for years and have multiple high end setups in my house. I was looking for a way for me to listen to music while sitting at my desk. I ended up leaving with the TA-22 and the Meze 109 Pro. I have put many hours on them this week and I find myself only enjoying the music instead of nitpicking the characteristics of the gear the way I do with my main system. I highly recommend this combination!
