Two selectable stereo RCA jack pairs receive the input signals. Even these RCA jacks are of our own design. Teflon® insulated and gold-plated, we have been producing these excellent RCA jacks since the mid-1990s. The volume is controlled on the facia by the sexy front thumbwheel and also by the included Radio Frequency remote control, both of which operate a precision stepped relay ladder matrix attenuator in half dB steps. The RF remote can be operated anywhere in the home, even through walls or cabinetry, especially useful when using the unit as a stand-alone preamplifier. Next to the front volume control wheel, you’ll find the Mute switch to instantly kill the signal. Spinning the volume wheel all the way to minimum also mutes the signal. There is also a user-adjustable Headphone Overload Protection System, which declares maximum output level to protect precious headphones and your ears!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnd you know how maddening it is to try to listen to a mono LP record on headphones - which is why we have provided a MONO switch!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn case your source needs some correction or if your own ears do not hear equally, we have included a Balance Control, which can swing the signal up to 72dB either way. In its center detent position, this special balance control is completely out of the circuit. Also, to be able to execute some sonic authority over what is handed to you in a given recording or to just make your headphones sound nicer (to you!), we have provided historically proven pleasing and gentle Tone Controls - and these Baxandall Bass and Treble equalizers can be completely bypassed at the push of a button. Try them! We think you really will enjoy having the choice to enliven and enrich your sonic experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlong those lines, the Variable Feedback control allows you to control the amount of overall negative feedback applied to the amplifier from 0dB, or no Global Negative Feedback, to 10dB of NFB. Negative Feedback in electronics is when a small portion of the output signal is reintroduced back to the input signal to provide a more stable and beneficial corrective result. This control is very useful when determining how “tight” you want your amplifier to sound. For example, a simple female vocal with minimal percussion can sound more intimate with very little feedback, but a complicated symphony orchestra passage may sound better positioned with more feedback. Applying different amounts of negative feedback can also affect the slew rate and apparent “speed” of the sonic character. Other aspects for which to listen include placement, forward or relaxed, darker vs shimmering, or punchy vs mellow. Feel free to play with this knob and listen for the not-so-subtle diversity that altering the amount of feedback provides. It’s one of our favorite circuit tricks, and we’ve been pulling this one for decades!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSwitching Topology\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe’re pretty sure we originated this concept in the audiophile world back with the Manley SE\/PP 300B power amplifiers, and it’s only because we have our own in-house magnetics department that we can devise such complaisant output transformers that can accommodate such radical demands. The Absolute Headphone amplifier features custom hand-wound air-gapped dual-mode MANLEY IRON® output transformers, designed and manufactured at the Manley Labs factory in California. Interestingly, the output tube stage can be switched on-the-fly between all-triode Push-Pull to Single-Ended topology. This completely alters the harmonic structure from odd-order to even-order and basically halves the output power, again providing yet another spicy ingredient to flavor the sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditionally, with a push of a button, these transformers cycle through three ranges of output loads accommodating headphones from 12 to 600 Ohms or greater. Choose between three sets of outputs: the expected 1\/4\" TRS Headphone Jack, a 4-pin XLR Balanced Stereo Output for your high-end balanced headphones, and a set of stereo RCA outputs to use this component as your line-level preamplifier in your existing hifi system. The Bypass Thru Mode sends RCA Input 1 directly to the RCA Outputs when in STANDBY mode. Useful, as your main audio system sources can drive either playback system without having to change upstream cabling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Absolute Headphone amplifier incorporates our own innovative,purpose-designed-for-audio High Voltage switched-mode power supply. All super-low impedance DC rails are fully regulated and are worlds quieter than any linear supply we have ever encountered. The resulting sound is fast and dynamic with a deep, punchy bass, deadly-quiet inky blacks, and superior headroom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 6AQ5 or EL90 is the vacuum tube used in the output stage of the Absolute Headphone amplifier. It is well-suited for our purposes in a headphone amplifier. The tube is configured as a triode due to the low power requirements needed for headphone use. This tube is widely available from well-known manufacturers such as RCA and GE. The tubes can be ordered as a matched quad, and for ease of us,e the tubes do not require biasing. Simply plug them in and forget ‘em!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo Chassis Colors\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbsolute offers the solid billet chassis for the Manley Absolute Headphone Amplifier

True, I am using some Sylvania GP, but the 5751 in general has a very good focus to the sound, with good layering and a solid bass impact.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eZia warns, however, \"I think in general I like the sound of the 5751 over a 12AX7. However, in the Absolute headphone amp, the lower gain of the 5751 drops the overall sensitivity of the amp, and it does not reach acceptable volume levels with a standard 1VRMS device such as an iPhone, especially with max FB and PP.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo the answer is, yes, you can try 5751 tubes in place of the 12AX7 input tubes, but you will not have as much gain, so be aware of that!
