The HPA V222 is a newly developed balanced headphone amplifier in the Violectric range. As a true (!!) balanced amplifier it is equipped with four amplifier stages and not only balanced connectors!

The roots of the amplifier circuitry can be found in its praised and rewards winning predecessors V200, V220, V280 and V281. Inside HPA V222 it features the similar natural but smooth and pleasing sound. Because of its matchless technology HPA V222 not only offers a powerful headphone amplifier, but also:

LOWEST NOISE
Through a very small amount of internal gain. This makes the amplifier's self-generated noise inaudible.

HIGH OUTPUT VOLTAGE
Through 50 V internal operating voltage. Therefor ideally suited for high-impedance headphones deserving high output voltage swing.

HIGH OUTPUT POWER
Thanks to powerful amplifiers that offer far more power even the most demanding headphones would need. So best suited for headphones with low impedances as well as magnetostatic headphones !!

HIGH DAMPING FACTOR
Due to lowest output impedance. Therefor the ideal match for difficult to drive headphones without negative side effects and with the guarantee for a uncompromising frequency response.

Lily Q. ★★★★★

The balanced XLR inputs on this amp give my HD 800 S a dead-quiet background I've never heard before. Soundstage feels wider and more layered, even with demanding classical tracks.

Jason G. ★★★★★

Finally swapped out my single-ended setup and the four amplifier stages make a real difference — everything feels more open and controlled, especially with balanced cables on both ends. It runs cool even after a few hours of listening, which I didn’t expect from something this powerful.

Lily W. ★★★★★

Balanced in means balanced out — I finally have true four-stage drive across both XLR and single-ended outs, and my planar cans sound effortless with way more headroom than my old single-ended amp. The chassis runs cool even after an evening session, which surprised me for something this powerful.
