Pure class-A power amplifiers, dual stereo layout to drive two headphones withindependent volume setting, bridging feature to drive one headphones set in balancedmode, preamplifier output to drive power amplifiers, two inputs with tape output, auxiliary input for high current, low noise power supply. Marley is a very high performance headphones amplifier conceived to give best soundquality with every kind of headphones, from small in-ear models to expensive andchallenging planar transducers devices. Its pure Class-A, discrete components amplifiersdeliver crystal-clear sound at any level up to 8Vrms in single-ended mode (that is, driving headphones provided with standard 6.35mm jack) or 16Vrms in balanced mode (that is, drivingheadphones provided with 4-pin XLR jack). Two stereo amplifiers are fitted into the Marley, each one with its volume control. Thisway, two headphones can be driven in single-ended mode to allow two listeners to enjoytheir music at their favourite listening level. On the other hand, purist audiophiles using headphones with balanced drive capabilitycan set the Marley in balanced mode, obtaining 6dB more SPL and improved soundquality. Features include input switching, preamp output to drive a power amplifier, tape output, balance, muting, mode selection (single-ended or balanced), volume display modeselection, auto switch-off. Volume can be set in 1dB steps between -78dB and 0dB. Muting attenuates the level by20dB when needed. Auto switch off is a cool feature implemented to comply with energysaving regulations which will also be useful to users who like late night listening andfalling asleep while enjoying their music. Power capability is also awesome for such a small unit: 4Wrms per channel on 8 Ohmsand a SNR of 120dB (A-weighted) allow for driving high sensitivity speakers withoutstanding results (output adaptor needed). Marley is provided with a 15V-30VA wall adaptor. An input for an external high-current, low-noise power supply is also present on the rear panel.
