With a robust capability of handling up to 130-watts RMS of continuous power, it ensures your sound remains powerful and dynamic even at reduced levels.

The Headload employs a sophisticated, 100% discrete fan-cooled design featuring precision-engineered cement encrusted, epoxy-coated copper resistor coils. These work seamlessly with a 6-position rotary switch, enabling you to dial down the output from 100% to 20%, while a trim control offers further refinement below 20%. This feature makes it perfect for quiet recording sessions or late-night practice with its built-in headphone amplifier.
