Key features

• •It's easy to build a complete desktop system around the Valhalla 2.
• •Use it with many headphones--some that you'd never expect to use with a tube amp.
• •Preamp outs allow you to connect your powered monitors directly to Valhalla 2 for what some people call the "tube magic" sound.
• •The gain switch gives you better control of both output level and impedance, for better matching to your headphones.
• •Valhalla 2 is exceptionally accurate, neutral, and resolving, without being strident or etched.
• •Tubes Made Flexible While most tube OTL amps are really only designed for 300 ohm Senns and 600 ohm Beyers, Valhalla 2 stretches to include headphones that you'd never expect to use with a tube amp. Go ahead. Use it with Grados. Run it with AKGs. Rely on it for many IEMs. You may even like it with high-efficiency planars like LCD-X, LCD-XC, Oppo PM-1 and HE-400.
• •A Complete Desktop Preamp Valhalla 2 also adds two important features: preamp outs and a gain switch. Preamp outs let you connect your powered monitors directly to Valhalla 2, to give them some of what many people call "tube magic." The gain switch gives you better control of both output level and impedance, for better matching to your headphones. It's easy to build a complete desktop system around the Valhalla.
• •Not Your Father's Tube Amp If you're expecting syrupy, tubby, euphonically colored tube sound, you're in for a shock. Valhalla 2 is exceptionally accurate, neutral, and resolving, without being strident or etched.
• •Designed and Assembled in USA The vast majority of the total production cost of Valhalla 2-chassis, boards, transformers, assembly, etc-goes to US companies manufacturing in the US. Our chassis are made minutes from our facility. Our PCBs are done just over the hill from us, or done in NorCal. Our transformers are also made in California. You get the picture.
• •5-Year Warranty Valhalla 2 is covered by a limited warranty that covers parts and labor for five years. The tubes are covered for 3 months.
