Maximum Performance

The Head Box DS3 B’s fully balanced, discreet topology redefines the possibilities of its product category, delivering ultra-clean amplification and effortless drive for even the most demanding headphones.

Every aspect of its design prioritises sonic purity, from the carefully optimised signal path to the discreet, low-noise components that minimise distortion and preserve the finest details of any recording. With support for both balanced and single-ended headphones, it integrates seamlessly into desktop and high-end hi-fi systems, providing versatile connectivity and ensuring consistent, high-quality performance across a wide range of audio sources.

Fully Balanced Power

At its core, the Head Box DS3 B offers a fully balanced signal chain for both RCA and XLR inputs, ensuring maximum channel separation and minimal noise.

The power stage delivers up to 1500 mW of fully balanced output, thanks to a meticulously engineered discrete amplifier design. Balanced headphone outputs are provided via 4.4 mm Pentaconn and XLR connectors, while single-ended headphones can be driven through 3.5 mm and 6.3 mm outputs. A bypass RCA loop is also present, providing easy integration to additional amplifiers or system expansion.
