“What won’t is the m9XX’s power. If you can’t get enough power for your headphones from the m9XX you’re either deaf, or you’ve already broken your headphones. It provides overkill voltage for the DT880/600, the T1, and the HD880 at current-stable levels. You’ll bleed long before high-performance mode runs into IMD.”

AUDION BLACK SHADOW 2 MONO POWER AMPLIFIER REVIEW

January 1, 2016 Comments Off on AUDION BLACK SHADOW 2 MONO POWER AMPLIFIER REVIEW

“The Black Shadow 2 draws out the harmonic richness of music and its natural sense of dynamic range. This is the kind of sound that makes you argue over pianists, not cables, because it perfectly shows the playing dynamics of different virtuosos. If you have an opinion about Haifetz vs. Ricci, or Casals vs. Rostopovich, or even Argerich vs. Barenboim vs. Brendel, the Audion amp will be your friend. If you ‘like a bit of Mozart in the evening’, this is probably not for you. The Audion’s unforced dynamic shading and ability to move from fff to ppp without a hesitation makes music something that must be engaged with, not played in the background.”
