The SPL Phonitor 3 Headphone Amplifier is the ultimate headphone amplifier and monitoring controller with 120V technology. It offers the same monitoring quality as the big SPL mastering consoles - on loudspeakers and headphones.
The analog Phonitor Matrix allows mixing and mastering on headphones in the highest quality – with the same spatial perception of the stereo stage as on loudspeakers. Three analog XLR stereo inputs for various sources and a wide range of monitoring options make it the perfect monitor controller for demanding producers and mixing/mastering engineers. Phonitor 3 can be equipped with the optional Expansion Rack, which is not only a 19" rack housing, but it also expands the connection possibilities with three additional switchable stereo outputs for active loudspeakers or power amplifiers.
Great sound – for headphones
The Phonitor 3 offers connection for a standard headphone with a stereo jack plug on the front. Thanks to the enormous output power, all kind of headphones are driven eff ortlessly. Thus, it plays out the advantages of the SPL 120V technology and rewards the listener with an honest, detailed and at the same time vivid sound experience.
Great sound – also for loudspeakers
On the rear of the device, Phonitor 3 offers a stereo output which makes it a high-quality monitoring controller for any monitoring situation. Active speakers with an integrated power amplifi er or passive speakers in combination with a power amplifier can be connected at this output.
Monitoring at the highest level
Phonitor 3 offers the same key technology – SPL 120V technology – and signal quality as the big SPL DMC and MMC mastering consoles.
The Revolution: Phonitor Matrix
One of the unique features of SPL headphone amplifiers is the SPL Phonitor Matrix. It enables mixing and mastering engineers to create perfect mixes on headphones, which will translate perfectly to all types of stereo speaker systems.But the Phonitor Matrix is not only designed for professional use in the studio. It also enables the hifi enthusiast to enjoy music on headphones, like if it was played back on speakers.
The 120V technology
The 120V technology is our reference technology. The 120V technology is unique in the world. It operates at a DC voltage of 120 volts. This is four times that of IC-based semiconductor op-amps.
