Critic Reviews

Oz Audio Q-MIX HM6

soundonsound.com

A sturdy, versatile headphone amp, the Oz-Audio Q-Mix HM6 shines in studio environments, offering multiple mix options and an effects send/return feature. Its robust build and intuitive controls make it user-friendly for musicians to create personal foldback mixes. However, its 160-milliwatt output might not suffice for high-impedance headphones, which could leave some drummers wanting more power. Overall, it's a solid choice for those seeking a reliable solution to avoid foldback arguments in recording sessions.
