Description
Niimbus US 5 PRO
The Niimbus US 5 PRO is the successor of the praised headphone amps US 4 / US 4+.
The new amps offer the same unsurpassed powerful, noiseless and perfect-sounding headphone amp circuitry to drive any dynamic and planar headphone.
The Niimbus US 5 PRO offers a pre-amp function to connect directly and control power amps or active speakers.
Nearly all functions can be conveniently controlled using a stylish remote.
The Niimbus US 5 PRO additionally offers a 256-step reed relay volume control.
Connect not only your headphones to the Niimbus US 5 PRO but also your power amplifier or your active speakers and enjoy a compact and fantastic-sounding headphone amplifier and/or a premium preamplifier.
LOWEST NOISE
Through a minimal amount of internal gain. This makes the amplifier’s self-generated noise inaudible.
HIGH OUTPUT VOLTAGE
Through 60 V internal operating voltage. Therefore ideally suited for high-impedance headphones deserving high output voltage swing.
HIGH OUTPUT POWER
Thanks to powerful amplifiers that offer far more power than even the most demanding headphones would need. So, best suited for headphones with low impedances and planar (magnetostatic) headphones !!
HIGH DAMPING FACTOR
Due to the lowest output impedance. Therefore the ideal match for difficult-to-drive headphones without negative side effects and with the guarantee of uncompromising frequency response.
Remote
Control the Nimbus US 5 PRO with its stylish remote control, milled from a solid piece of aluminium. Via infrared rays, you have access to motorized volume control, mute, input selection, Headphone and line-out control.
