SIMPLIFIED DESKTOP AUDIO
We designed the Element Line to simplify your desktop audio experience. EL Amp combines a powerful headphone amplifier with a comfortable knob, housed in a precision machined chassis. Enjoy seamless transitions between your powered speakers and headphones.
"This amp offers a really terrific value. When the well detailed, ever so slightly warm EL DAC meets the clean, linear EL amp, it is just pure, musical goodness. I'm not sure what, if anything, wouldn't sound right as rain when connected to these two."
"More than enough to handle anything and everything I threw at it. It responded in spades. Not only is it powerful, it's absolutely clean."
