“No reason to mince words: this is the best headphone amplifier I have ever used…”- Ken Kessler, Hi-Fi News (February 2020) THESE LIST NEW AT $5499.00 STEAL THIS for the SALE PRICE of $3100.00 USD !!We are STILL cleaning out Studio B here at the Armory! From the mastering station in the B room!We found this plugged in to some very high end Mytek DA converters! RARELY SEEN SECRET WEAPON! (First 2 pics are stock photos)Our mastering guys love this Headphone amp! It allows for checking mixes with different output, THD and amplifier feedback characteristics. Yes they preview how your mix will sound!it is also a Line-Level Preamplifier! And YES I have run full mixes and busses through it to change slew rate and add rich harmonic content with really nice control...even tone control!In ORIGINAL BOX with ORIGINAL PACKING and blank warranty card, Manual, Sticker and Power cord!Applying different amounts of negative feedback can also affect the slew rate and apparent “speed” of the sonic character. Other aspects of control may change include placement, forward or relaxed, darker vs shimmering, or punchy vs mellow. musical, super fun and useful!Sometimes the audiophile and professional recording engineering worlds overlap!Much of the excitement and coloration hyped about it audiophile mags a sites are an anathema to audio engineers striving for the most accurate sonic reproduction versus a sound ethos that will vary from circumstance to circumstance. Pros will choose consistency over hype every time. The deal is..what if you could have accuracy AND tonal control? The answer is this sonic powerhouse for the most important part of the equation...listening and monitoring.We first got hooked on Manley headphone amplification back when they made monitor cue mixers for the studio..(raises hand we had some and they solved real problems). Then it was the release of the Manley Labs Neo Classic 300B and it became like the holy grail for headphone lovers the world over.. I mean instant cult classic..I still use mine for that in my project studio..nothing else effortlessly drives my Audeze LCD4 and LCD5 headphones like Manley tube power! So when I heard about the new Manley Absolute Headphone Amplifier I was like GAME ON as had already heard what these folks could do when they were not even trying to make the best headphone amp and My Neo Classic 300B was the perfect example. Listen to what Manley says about their unit!Manley Labs is proud to announce the release of a stunning design: the Absolute Headphone Amplifier. Brimming with functionality, this new art piece from Manley Labs is as enthralling musically as it is handsome visually.With over three years of development in its creation, Manley has drawn from its 30 years of experience in conceptualizing and developing each precise element of this multi-talented unit. This masterpiece embodies high-performance flexibility for every person to be able to custom compose sonic performance reliably, repeatedly, or even spontaneously. Artistic expression with sound!Oh, and by the way, it is also a Line-Level Preamplifier!DETAILSThere are fifteen independent controls available, each of which was exhaustively developed for convenient adjustability and aural variety. Two selectable stereo RCA jack pairs receive the input signals. Even these RCA jacks are of our own design. Teflon® insulated and gold plated, we have been producing these excellent RCA jacks since the mid-1990s. The volume is controlled on the facia by the sexy front thumb wheel and also by the included Radio Frequency remote control, both of which operate a precision stepped relay ladder matrix attenuator in half dB steps. The RF remote can be operated anywhere in the home, even through walls or cabinetry, especially useful when using the unit as a stand-alone preamplifier. Next to the front volume control wheel you’ll find the Mute switch to instantly kill the signal. Spinning the volume wheel all the way to minimum also mutes the signal.And you know how maddening it is to try to listen to a mono LP record on headphones - which is why we have provided a MONO switch!In case your source needs some correction or if your own ears do not hear equally, we have included a Balance Control which can swing the signal up to 72dB either way. In its center detent position, this special balance control is completely out of the circuit. Also to be able to execute some sonic authority over what is handed to you in a given recording or to just make your headphones sound nicer (to you!) we have provided historically proven pleasing and gentle Tone Controls - and these Baxandall Bass and Treble equalizers can be completely bypassed at the push of a button. Try them! We think you really will enjoy having the choice to enliven and enrich your sonic experience.Along those lines, the Variable Feedback control allows you to control the amount of overall negative feedback applied to the amplifier from 0dB, or no Global Negative Feedback, to 10dB of NFB. Negative Feedback in electronics is when a small portion of the output signal is re-introduced back to the input signal to provide a more stable and beneficial corrective result. This control is very useful when determining how “tight” you want your amplifier to sound. For example, a simple female vocal with minimal percussion can sound more intimate with very little feedback, but a complicated symphony orchestra passage may sound better positioned with more feedback. Applying different amounts of negative feedback can also affect the slew rate and apparent “speed” of the sonic character. Other aspects for which to listen include placement, forward or relaxed, darker vs shimmering, or punchy vs mellow. Feel free to play with this knob and listen for the not-so-subtle diversity that altering the amount of feedback provides. It’s one of our favorite circuit tricks and we’ve been pulling this one for decades!Ah! And our other coolest tonal trick: Switching Topology! We’re pretty sure we originated this concept in the audiophile world back with the Manley SE/PP 300B power amplifiers and it’s only because we have our own in-house magnetics department that we are able to devise such complaisant output transformers that can accommodate such radical demands. The Absolute Headphone amplifier features custom hand-wound air-gapped dual-mode MANLEY IRON® output transformers, designed and manufactured at the Manley Labs factory in California. Interestingly, the output tube stage can be switched on-the-fly between all-triode Push-Pull to Single-Ended topology. This completely alters the harmonic structure from odd-order to even-order and basically halves the output power again providing yet another spicy ingredient to flavor the sound.Additionally, with a push of a button, these transformers cycle through three ranges of output loads accommodating headphones from 12 to 600 Ohms or greater. Choose between three sets of outputs: the expected ¼” TRS Headphone Jack, a 4-pin XLR Balanced Stereo Output for your high-end balanced headphones, and a set of stereo RCA outputs to use this component as your line-level preamplifier in your existing hifi system. The Bypass Thru Mode sends RCA Input 1 directly to the RCA Outputs, when in STANDBY mode. Useful, as your main audio system sources can drive either playback system without having to change upstream cabling.The Absolute Headphone amplifier incorporates our own innovative purpose-designed-for-audio High Voltage switched-mode power supply. All super-low impedance DC rails are fully regulated and worlds quieter than any linear supply we have ever encountered. The resulting sound is fast and dynamic with a deep punchy bass, deadly-quiet inky blacks, and superior headroom.The 6AQ5 or EL90 is the vacuum tube used in the output stage of the Absolute Headphone amplifier. It is well suited for our purposes in a headphone amplifier. The tube is configured as a triode due to the low power requirements needed for headphone use. This tube is widely available from well-known manufacturers such as RCA and GE. The tubes can be ordered as a matched quad and for ease of use the tubes do not require biasing. Simply plug them in and forget ‘em!With its universal power supply allowing it to operate anywhere in the world, robust build quality and breathtaking audio playback, the Absolute Headphone amplifier is at home absolutely anywhere, from a cozy listening room, to your bedside, on your office desk, or as a reliable workhorse in a professional recording studio. Conductive plastic pots and film caps are just some of the fine components utilized, proven over decades of loyal use. Manufactured completely to stringent standards in California, USA, crafted by hand, by American workers, the Manley Absolute Headphone Amplifier certainly makes for a formidable player in today’s headphone listening arena.This very unusual and visually striking audio sculpture was brought to life by Manley’s team of engineers including Mitch Margolis - of Manley STEELHEAD fame - and our lead engineer Humberto Rodriguez, finalizing the amplifier and bringing it to life and into production - in America, of course!EveAnna Manley, President and co-founder of Manley Labs observes: “Headphone listening is not new to us; we have been producing personal headphone playback systems aka “Cue Mixers” for recording studios around the globe for well over twenty years. In the HiFi world, our legendary Manley Neo-Classic 300B Preamplifier has become a total cult classic with headphone listeners since the mid-1990’s. Reaching forward, we wanted to produce an extraordinary sounding headphone amplifier chock-full of features and sonic variety for the audiophile, at a price that wouldn’t break the bank either. I know you’re going to Absolutely LOVE this exciting creation of ours.”get this amp while it lasts!!! Seeing these used is RARE!

These amps have been well reviewed time and time again as end game amps. See New Days review for the latest one. They have an emotional attachment to the music I have never heard in an amplifier before. If you have horn speakers, it doesnt get much better. Just different. Buy with confidence, see feedback and Ebay feedback. Known for going over the top. Shipping will be a little expensive being there are two giant boxes and I am sure you will want insurance. We can talk that through, no worries there. You will need 300Bs, I use Western Electric. Not putting those in the bundle of course lol. I will say, you do not need to go over board with this amp and tubes. It doesnt change much, Chinese 300b vs WE. Start there, save some dough. It will sound glorious!! This amp has also been gone over by Lenny(head tech) at Manley about 3 years ago. No issues ever.I also replaced the B rail fuses so they will be fresh as well. Plug and play, add 300Bs and go! Any questions, feel free to ask! THANKS FOR LOOKING!! DETAILSThe wonderfully simple 300B directly heated triode is virtually Lee De Forests very first evolutionary 3-element piece, comprising only filament, input grid and anode output. Brought to reliable perfection by Western Electric USA and later by Standard Telephones UK as the 4300B, the 300B was very much intended and widely used for telephony amplification. But audio enthusiasts of older times knew a good thing when they saw (heard!) it and the great love affair between the 300B and music began... and dwindled many years later as the American Western Electric 300B was taken out of production in the late 1980s making the genuine ones extremely valuable and, accordingly, very highly prized as collectors pieces. With the Asian-driven passion and resultant revival of SINGLE ENDED topology the call for the 300B to be put back into production was too overwhelming for the Chinese factories to resist. The Russian and the re-start of USA manufacture of the genuine Western Electric original have further expanded the selection. Basic thermionic simplicity... directly-heated triodes... it is a drug for some, a religion for others...With its decidedly (and studiedly) retro physical proportions- very deep front-to-back dimensions with a narrow side-to-side width, this layout closely follows concepts of a bygone era, where the well-conceived intention was to keep the power supply as far as possible from the hum and noise susceptible octal input tubes. The output tubes themselves require careful distancing from the mains transformer and, of course, require pure DC on their filaments. Again, reverence to past times begs the use of vacuum tube rectification with its very gentle voltage rise-time. But to bring the performance up to modern demands, we use two rectifiers to enable the use of very substantial filter / reservoir capacitors... over 1300 microfarads in the B+ rail- much improved from the 4 or 8 microfarads utilized in the 1930s.View fullsizeWhen several other manufacturers started selling single-ended amps with 5 to 9 watts of power, we understood subjectively and objectively the good part of the story: the superb mid range, the delicate detail, the inherent simplicity. The bad news was that there were almost no speakers efficient enough to help form a dynamically viable system. The worst news was that either these single-ended amps cost more than the condo and or they had specs that could only be read as a joke. As the triode fans increased, more efficient speakers became available and several fanatics began to dismiss push-pull as a bad thing to be avoided at all costs. We objected to such blanket generalities and stressed that the push-pull done right with truly phase-balanced transformers, quality parts throughout and well designed circuitry has proven to be a superb technique. We also enjoy single-ended topology but only when it is done right, mostly because we expect flat frequency response and low distortion out of an amplifier. We knew that we could achieve this in a properly conceived single-ended design. We chose to rise to the challenge of designing special circuitry that could be switched on the fly From 12 watts in parallel SINGLE-ENDED to 25 watts in PUSH-PULL which, we believe is unique in the industry.The Output transformer (hand-wound in our own factory) is of complex design employing inordinately high primary inductance to compensate for the mandatory magnetic gap required for the uni-direction current and voltage flow of the single-ended output stage. Another factor in the single ended triode saga (currently enjoying a wide spread popularity) is demand for little (or sometimes zero) negative feedback. We at Manley Labs believe in the judicious or sensible amount of feedback to refine and maximize performance. Our Neo-Classic SE/PP300B gives you the choice in precision switched 1 dB steps to go from ZERO dBs to 10 dBs of negative feedback. Even with zero negative feedback, this amp is cleaner and flatter than any single-ended amp we know of. For more information about variable feedback read Notes on Negative Feedback.One interesting aspect of negative feedback is it gives a higher damping factor. Conventional wisdom would have us think that the higher the damping factor, the better. Our experience is that the optimum damping factor is not infinity and that it depends on the speaker, the room. and the taste of the listener. In other words, the optimum is variability, and this we provide. This amp satisfies us as long time amplifier builders, amazes the critics in several well known magazines and is bound to satisfy you with the ability to fit into your system and your expectations. BUT REMEMBER PLEASE the overall facts of power ratings versus loudspeaker sensitivity and room size when electing to venture into lower power amplifiers (less than 50 watts) and especially when contemplating single-ended topology. Please read Considerations of Amplifier Power for more info. As highly regarded as the Retros were by dealers ,audiophiles and reviewers, the Neos take the design and the sonics to a new level. In 2000, Mitch Margolis completely overhauled the previous Retro model to create the Neo-Classic Version you see here...so whats new with this Neo-Classic version you ask?Now... onto the techno mumble jumble... heres all the guts improvements we made in 2001. Mitch spent six months doing all this:The driver stage was completely re-engineered. Peak output volts of driver increased by 60V p-p in PP mode. Clever new driver circuit delivers way better drive, with less punishing plate volts, and less THD. This offers enough drive even for more exotic tubes such as VV30B, etc...The NEOs have WAY improved power bandwidth. NEOs deliver much more power at higher and lower freqs than the ol Retros did. We did rescale the B+ and reduced idle plate dissipation on the NEOs 300Bs for better tube reliability.New power max ratings are 12 watts in SE mode and 25 watts in PP mode. BUT because of better bandwidth delivery and better driver drive into 300Bs these NEOs sound louder and seem to be more powerful. They distort much less early when pushing the power envelope. The power supply sags-on-demand at a much high point than before for more headroom. It is all beefier n heftier.The heater (300B cathode which is directly heated triode design) now has 40dB less ripple. NEO design has MORE capacity in heater supply and LOTS of PI filtering! So the result is a quieter amplifier. Big time.Now in the NEO version, the B+ rectification is all-real-Full Wave Bridge vacuum tube rectification. Even more better. Especially sonically for you vacuum tube rectifier fans...The NEOS chassis was redesigned to accommodate a much bigger power tranny. Huger VA. Next frame size up. Cooler running. Much more able to deliver-on-demand. Less PSU sag. Kick-ass. And now, finally QUIET! REALLY! There wasnt enough room on the old Retros for next frame size up to achieve a nicenquiet power transformer design. Now the NEOs chassis is big enough to have a big enough power transformer that is really silent and running on holiday.Bias supply is now cleverly cross-coupled so that changing one tubes bias doesnt whack the other one out. This is very cool.We even isolated the input B+ for more stable input B+ supply. Again, so when pushed, the whole amp doesnt drag everybody down with it.We added a MUTE switch on the front panel. SE-PP switch on the other side of front panel.Power switch at the IEC so all those nasty AC volts dont come up and infect the input stages.Discarded the transformer-balanced XLR input. Because WHATS THE POINT??? At gunpoint, we will make a balanced XLR transformer coupled input available upon special request... but you need to have a bigger gun than EveAnna does...Still has those nice sounding MultiCap® coupling caps and even more of em....Now NEO has nice beautiful WBT binding posts that everybody loves. Still has impedance load switch as before.Service is now a piece of cake in the NEO design. The main PCB can now be lifted out for service without a soldering iron... if switches get banged or broken they can be user replaced with a phillips screwdriver to remove the bottom stainless-steel (now) cover and then remove faceplate with little allen key, then unscrew the switch with pliers or (better) correct nut driver, then unplugged out old switch then new one plugged in with switch assembly from us. Easy as pie!But, just in case, we did invent newer stronger foams and packaging so hopefully no more breakies....And bottom line, in all our listening tests, this NEO is very much improved. Now with this six months of re-engineering of the Neo-Classic SE/PP 300Bs, THD BE-GONE!!!!The Electro-Harmonix Russian 300B tubes are being shipped as standard. Thats 300B-EH.And finally, sorry to say, we had to raise the price to PAY for all this R&D and nice improvements and so we can start making some money on this product for a change... (insert trite capitalist expression here). Sorry folks, thats the way it goes....So guys, WAIT UNTIL YOU HEAR THEM AND SEE THEM.... then of course, as always, we welcome your comments!There is reason for our madness....…now check out this unboxing video from Ron at New Record Day! https://youtu.be/gWmS6A9XqJ4 …and his followup review where he names the Neo-Classic 300B his “DESERTED ISLAND AMPLIFIER”. https://youtu.be/6q5wP5564pA SPECIFICATIONSVacuum Tubes: 2 x 300B (Output), 1 x 6SN7 (Driver), 1 x 6SL7 (Input), 2 x 5AR4 (Rectifier).

Here is a real rarity, and a great one at that. I believe that this self powered phono preamp emulates the RIAA curve of the classic Golden Age of hifi tube phono stages. No moving coil setting. I am the original owner of this unit. Ive used it very seldom, because I never bought a line stage preamp to go with it. I learned instead to repair and rebuild the vintage tube audio equipment I already had! However, I consider this Manley preamp to be the equal of my best vintage stuff, and that is saying a lot. I believe this to be a great add-on for those who want to go with more modern (but traditional sounding) builds. The unit is in very fine condition, and sounds just great. I put 4 NOS (new out of the box) tubes in it: 2 USA GE 12AT7s, and 2 late issue Mullard 12AX7s, labeled RCA. So, the unit should be good for a long time: very high quality parts and little use. There is no manual, apparently one was never printed. I called Manley Laboratories and asked!

This unit has tubes and powers up. IT IS UNTESTED. I am not a home audio person. I acquired this when I purchased a house. Please bid accordingly all offers will be considered. This VTL Vacuum Tube Logic David Manley pre-amp phono amplifier is a top-quality piece of equipment that any true audiophile would be proud to own. With its analog design and tube amplification, this device delivers a rich and warm sound that will bring your music to life. Featuring five audio inputs, including phono, CD, AUX, tuner, and tape, this amplifier offers plenty of connectivity options for all your audio equipment. It also has stereo L/R RCA audio outputs, so you can connect it to your speakers and enjoy your music in high fidelity. This VTL amplifier is in excellent working condition and will provide you with years of listening pleasure.

Up for sale is my treasured Manley tube line stage / pre-amplifier that rivals many higher end brand. Manley Control Master Line Preamplifier uses 12AT7 and 12AU7 for each channel and it sounds much better than modern day 12AX7 based preamplifier. It has both RCA and XLR input and outputs. Ive recapped all the electrolytic capacitors with the best audio grade capacitors made by Nichicon and Panasonic a few years ago for better noise rejection since I used this preamp with very high efficient and high sensitivity speakers. I also installed / replaced the audio signal coupling capacitors with Mundorf Silver / Old / Gold and Silver / Gold capacitors for better natural tone in the audio path. I also added AC Ground Lift Switch to isolate the Ground Path in the event of noisy ground line in the AC power line. The two balance trim pots in the front of this preamp is really neat and never been used in other preamp design. It allows the user to adjust the feedback from full feedback to very low feedback to alter the sonic to suit your system and also acts for the perfect balance between the left and right channel. There are many more small improvements such as better resistors and other upgrades that I done to improve the sonic and transparency to another level from the stock unit. However, the circuit is the same as the Original Manley Labs design with no modifications to the sound. I also have the original hand drawn Manley Labs schematic for this preamplifier that I will send along with the unit. Please ask questions you have. My asking price is fair so please dont send LOW Ball offers. Thanks!
