The HAR-8 is a headphone amplifier designed to meet the needs of recording studios, control rooms, radio stations and any environment requiring flexible distribution of audio signals to multiple headphones simultaneously. With its 8 independent channels and numerous features, the HAR-8 offers an efficient, high-performance solution for audio professionals.
Tailor-made monitoring for every speaker
Thanks to its 8 independent channels, the HAR-8 allows each user to benefit from a tailor-made mix, adapted to their specific needs. Each channel is equipped with an individual volume control, as well as a source selector, allowing each headphone's listening source to be set between the Main 1 and 2 inputs. What's more, direct input per channel makes it easy to integrate external sources, such as metronomes, tone generators or digital audio players, directly into the headphone mix.
Intuitive and practical design
The HAR-8 is designed to be easy to use, even in the most demanding working environments. It features a clear, intuitive interface, with easily accessible control buttons on the front panel. Each headphone output has its own dedicated source selector, a mono/stereo switch to convert the output signal to stereo if required, and an 8-segment LED VU meter, graduated from -30 to 0 dB, for continuous monitoring of each channel's output level.
For even greater convenience, the HAR-8 features a headphone output for each channel on the front and back, which can be used simultaneously to broadcast the signal from one channel to 2 listeners at the same time.
Professional ruggedness and reliability
Designed to withstand the rigors of intensive use, the HAR-8 is built with quality components and benefits from robust construction. Its 1U rack-mountable format makes it easy to integrate into any professional audio system, while its 6.35 mm TRS connectors ensure a solid, reliable connection in all circumstances.
