Phonitor is a success story. Designed and developed for the sound engineer and producer giving them a tool to be able to mix on headphones Phonitor soon found a big fan base among Hi-Fi aficionados around the world.
For us it was only logical, that we develop an optimized version for those who enjoy ‘just’ listening to music.
Now your headphones can be operated ‘balanced’. Phonitor x has an advanced dual power amp built-in that drives headphones balanced which twice the power of the standard 1/4" jack. This tightens the bass response and makes the overall playback even more relaxed and transparent. The front houses a 4-pin XLR connector to connect the balanced headphone. Both the standard and the 4-pin headphone outputs can be used simultaneously.
The Phonitor matrix has become simpler, because the Phonitor x is purely designed for audio playback. Features like Center Level adjustment, Solo and Polarity are of use in music production and have therefore been left off in the Phonitor x. We have also reduced the amount of selectable Speaker Angles from six to four leaving off the 15° and 75° angles.
Phonitor x is not just a headphone amplifier but also a full-fledged stereo preamplifier. There is provision for connecting up to five stereo sources – two in the analog domain offering XLR connectors for a balanced source and RCA connectors for an unbalanced source. With the optional DA converter installed three more digital stereo sources can be connected via USB, coaxial and optical connectors.
You can connect your active loudspeakers or power amplifier directly to the Phonitor x. The rear Speaker Outputs provide both balanced (XLR) and unbalanced (RCA) connections.
Phonitor x can be equipped with the DAC192 DA-converter. With that installed the available inputs are expanded by USB, coaxial and optical digital stereo inputs. The DA converter supports sample rates up to 192 kHz with 24 bit. It syncs automatically to the sample rate of the selected digital input.
