Bloom's Take You won't find a faster, cleaner, more transparent sound in an amp than you will in HeadAmp's GS-X Mk2, regardless of the headphones paired with it. The GS-X is designed to provide the same high-tier performance whether you're listening with sensitive IEMs, power-hungry planar magnetics, or low-efficiency, high-impedance headphones. The extra low-noise transistors, careful component pairing, and adjustable gain setting combine to provide your entire collection of headphones just what they demand. |
From HeadAmp
GS-X MK2 is HeadAmp's flagship amplifier for dynamic and planar magnetic headphones. With a circuit that has evolved and matured over a 15-year period, the GS-X MK2 is the most powerful, linear, and transparent amplifier that we have ever produced. Pushing up to 6W of class-A power into balanced headphones, the GS-X MK2 can tame the toughest headphone loads on the market, while its' low-noise circuitry delivers an equally brilliant performance with sensitive in-ear monitors.
In addition, the GS-X MK2 makes a fine preamp for your stereo speaker system. With its' high input impedance, low output impedance, multiple I/O options, 3-way gain control, and precise volume control, the GS-X MK2 can fit into almost any stereo rig, and provide the same wonderfully transparent sound output that it does with headphones.
The GS-X MK2 is a carefully handcrafted piece of audio equipment, with painstakingly matched components, and the highest standards for build quality in the business. Every GS-X MK2 is tested extensively throughout the build process, as well as before, and after an extensive burn-in process to ensure the best possible performance.
All GS-X MK2 units ship with the DACT 24-step attenuator volume control.
