SubZero HPA800 8 Channel Rack Headphone Amplifier Overview
This amplifier will make your job easier. Meet the SubZero HPA800 8 Channel Rack Headphone Amplifier. One of the hardest aspects of both live and studio performances is setting up headphone mixes. No two are the same. "I want more drums", "give me less bass", you can guarantee that each person will want something slightly different. Thanks to the SubZero HPA800, you can give them that. With the choice of two separate stereo inputs that are assignable to eight outputs, each musician will be able to achieve a customised mix that will bring out their very best performances.
The HPA800 is indispensable. It is designed with eight premium-powered amplifiers that can provide a seemingly infinite amount of power to each set of headphones, regardless of their impedance. You can easily monitor at a glance, and assess the integrity of each amplifiers' signal thanks to the inclusion of an 8-segment LED meter.
Encased in a rack-mount design, the HPA800 is just as comfortable on-the-road as it is in the studio. The inclusion of the highest quality components and a wide frequency response of 20Hz-20kHz provides a larger-than-life, listening experience. You'll wonder how you ever coped without it.

Full Description
View Full DescriptionOptimised listening experience
The HPA800 enables you with a total of eight independent duo-input channels. This amounts to a generous 16 headphone outputs. The extended connectivity of the amplifier makes it ideal for any musician, live sound engineer, or producer who wants to expand the capabilities of their current set-up.
When using this amplifier, the musician will have total control over their sound. They’ll be able to seamlessly switch between sources at the touch of a button. By inserting a signal into the direct output they’ll be able to override the main input of that channel. This is great for anyone who wants to quickly reference a track on an external media player during a session, or, simply wants to relax listening to their favourite music during down time.
Versatile playback
You’ll be free to choose between stereo and mono playback on each channel. By selecting stereo, you’ll be able to preserve the integrity of your mixes, ensuring that any panning and stereo effects such as reverb and delay translates to every set of headphones. Should you prefer to monitor in mono then the option’s there without compromising the listening experience of anyone else. By summing to mono, you can quickly assess the phase coherency of your recordings.
Built to last
The amplifier is enclosed within a durable, all metal chassis. This allows it to withstand the long-hours, and extensive use that is associated with the working professional. Thanks to SubZero building the HPA800 with the finest components its performance will be consistent throughout its lifespan. For established setups, it can be easily rack mounted (rack ears are included) and its internal power supply uses a standard IEC connector, for enhanced compatibility.
