All user reviews for the PreSonus HP-4

I reu the bte this morning.
The beautiful stuff, the pots that is not afraid to put in each rglage spices, small => habitable.
Before I worked with a SB Audigy and I plugged the headphones on the external rack (with a knob output level).
I bought a headset amplifier for neighbors, for me (to register without the microphone back) to SAVE money (that is cheaper than a amp vchement and monitoring speakers) and place, and finally, to remain compatible with multimedia requirements.
Given the quality of sound with a Sennheiser HD 477, I'm sorry no choice. I use it with Midi Mia and I have no breath. on the other hand, you should use HP-4 with a headphone as high impdance given that the amplification is tough, as you may have fantmes even at 0.

I IT CAN BE USED for over a month, I have no complaints except for particular its huge gain. I use it with a table and I have to sub-module I left if I want to be in a reasonable range of the potentiometer ... but that attention to the breath coming fast. Otherwise it does not exceed two or small stroke after the third 0.
4 headphone outputs stereo output jack 6.35 more general LR symmetric, this little box can serve as a small monitoring interface to play easily on the volume of headphones and listening studio, rather ideal home studio, but unnecessary if you already have a mixer that can do more. One can even mute the speakers cut without touching the volume control to listen, well seen and very pleasant.
A very good little machine. The sound is more transparent, in any case it is enough to return headphones for artists and sound recording for the same technician.
Just a little flat for gain too important, once the knob must be lifted only manage the volume shipment which is not conventional ...

Yes

Buy will have one year to use headphones back in my home studio and scne. I wanted two amplifier channels for the headphones and the Stereo input symtriques to cover long distance cables.
Most:
- Quality manufacturing, solid knobs that do not move in time
- Reserved for the amplification: always use my home 1 / 5 if the knob is too much
- Among symtriques

The -:
- Rear inputs and outputs in XLR jack and not, however, Jack's enough space to put the adapter jack / XLR is that I did.

Hey bé! on / off button? we put now? I like when it's not too plop in the headphone even if I set the volume to zero.

A shame that with a low-impedance headphones (45 Ohms) one is obliged to keep the headphone volume to one quarter if not less so as not to ruin the ears.

Uh yes, seeing the EQ3B suddenly .... Would there be a desire .... but if one day my M-Audio Quattro left me, well I would try the presonus again ....
Then immediately I continue to tell me that I had no place (that's for sure) or the need for a rack unit 19 ", but I will perhaps regret it one day ... .
Finally, I want to point out that zero volume for me is total silence. No ghosts to report. I did the test with a deposit of mine who improsture severe, and I'm formal.
Edit the 13/10
I also had the opportunity to use the monitor output to my amplifier TECHNICS SU V500 for listening on my JMLab Symbol6 and I could not find a particular color or alteration of sound.

frankly solid.
good metal everywhere. AVIC I read ... Finally A review that criticized the strength ... bin after it is shielding tank. but for normal users and that's great!
sound .. I have no fat to ab ... I do not care a bit that's fine.
I am very satisfied with the mute and mono that I did not expect this product. So it makes me a small monitor at hand.

2 points negative.
Indeed there is a very big win!
So we use the knobs at the start of the race and where he is weakest. So the stereo is not great below 5% of that by knob + left or right. Remedy: reduce the output of the soundcard to get the knobs halfway
2nd point is not rack .. brief

I have this little pre-amp for the past 5 months for the home studio.
It is plugged into my boss in on BR 600 and out .... on headphones and a pair of ADAM A5. What I liked is that we can manage the volume of the monitor directly on the machine (and also to mute).
I love its transparency. I ordered at the same time a low-end model for output and the difference is striking. It has nothing to do!
After it cheap but it's sturdy so I think once you bought is good for a good time.
Only a small black dot. I have a sennheiser hd 25 and the volume to 4 Chuis thoroughly. PZS serious but just know!

With experience, I would do this choice. is not the pro stuff but not the range of either. suited for home studios.
