    With effortless, wide-open sonic performance and the ability to drive any pair of headphones without compromise, the RNHP allows you to perform, mix and enjoy your music with a new level of clarity. Whether you’re tracking, mixing, or just listening to music, your headphone amplifier is as important to the final sound quality as your headphones so Rupert and his team at Rupert Neve Designs have developed the RNHP.

    Rupert Neve Designs RNHP Precision Headphone Amp Features
      Precision Sound
      Wide-open, extremely detailed sound quality allows you to get the most out of your headphones

      Dedicated Power
      High-power, high-headroom design can effortlessly drive high-impedance (up to 600 Ohm) headphones even during the loudest, most dynamic tracking sessions

      Reliable Translation
      The near-zero output impedance (.01 Ohm at 1kHz), direct-coupled amplifier design provides for excellent translation with any pair of headphones

      Precision Stereo Potentiometer
      The highly damped stereo potentiometer is designed to give you precise level control and maintain perfect left-right balance

      Professional Line Input
      The calibrated +4dBu line input is selected with the “A” switch. The combo jack accepts either XLR or TRS inputs for balanced professional devices.

      RCA Input
      The unbalanced RCA input is calibrated for -10dBV signals and is selected with the “B” switch. The RCA jack is commonly used with home stereo devices or Prosumer equipment

      3.5mm Input
      Stereo 3.5mm input specifically calibrated to work with mobile devices like phones, computers and digital cameras

      VESA Mount
      The VESA 100 compatible mount enables you to mount the RNHP wherever it needs to be. Common mounts are pole-mount arm for mic stands, pivoting multi-arm desk mount, and wall / surface mount for securing upside-down under a table, music stand or other studio furniture

      Steel Clamshell Chassis
      The RNHP’s rugged, solid-steel chassis is built to a high industrial standard with an overhang to protect the connectors and main level control from glancing blows, as well as shock-absorbing rubberized feet

      24V DC Input
      The RNHP can be powered using either the included 6 watt power supply or a 24V, 0.25A min battery (not sold by RND)
    Based on the headphone output circuit in the 5060 Centerpiece Desktop Mixer, the RNHP is a dedicated 24V reference-quality headphone amplifier with specifically-calibrated +4dBu balanced line, unbalanced RCA and 3.5mm (1/8”) inputs, housed in a rugged VESA-mountable steel chassis.

    Dedicated vs Integrated Amplifiers
    For much equipment, the headphone output is an afterthought. Most products with integrated headphone amps have large feature sets, small footprints, and relatively low price points. This leads to comprised power and audio quality of the headphone amplifier itself, which can lead to a number of issues in real world usage such as low headroom, unreliable performance, and a lack of focus.

    The RNHP was made to accomplish one simple purpose: making any headphones sound their best. As a dedicated design, the RNHP is tailored to deliver extremely high quality, powerful amplification, with precise calibration for any source input. This exceptional level of quality can be the difference that inspires an artist to give their best performance, lets an engineer make better choices in mic and placement, gives a mix engineer reliable translation of EQ and dynamics adjustments, or lets a music listener appreciate the full depth and detail of a recording.

    Specially-Calibrated Inputs For All of Your Devices
    In addition to being able to drive a wide variety of headphones without sacrificing performance, the RNHP is also capable of receiving a wide array of signals with its 3 inputs, calibrated for optimum level and impedance. Check the Application notes for how the RNHP can be utilized for different purposes.

    Here are some common device examples:
      Input A: +4dBu Line (XLR or TRS) Devices
      Studio Audio Interfaces (Line or Monitor Out)
      Headphone Mixers (Line Output or HP Out)
      Mixing Consoles (Line, Aux or Monitor Out)
      Professional Turntable Mixers (Line or Monitor)
      Professional Stereo Digital to Analogue Converter
      Professional Camera
      Studio Monitor Controllers

      Input B: RCA Devices
      CD / DVD Players
      Stereo Tuners
      Preamplified Turntables
      Prosumer Recording Devices / Cameras

      Input C: 3.5mm (1/8") Stereo Devices
      Mobile Phones
      Portable Music Players
      Computers
      DSLR Cameras
      Handheld Recording Devices
      Any 3.5mm headphone output
    VESA-Mountable Design
    The RNHP is designed for mounting with any VESA 100 compatible mount. These may include pole mounts, wall mounts, table mounts, or articulating arm mounts. These mounts can help to ensure the RNHP is always in the perfect position.

    Multiple-Line Feed
    In some situations where you only have one set of outputs but need to simultaneously feed the RNHP and another device such as speakers, a second headphone amplifier, or a 2-track recorder, we recommend using splitter cables from the Left and Right line outputs to feed both devices from the same stereo pair.

    To be honest, this headphone

    To be honest, this headphone amp is probably a little too pricey. HOWEVER…. It actually makes my Sennheiser HD 650’s sound incredible! Offering multiple inputs is really valuable based on what I’m using it for. I’ve used them watching movies on my MacBook, mixing a for tracks, and just listening to ...

    RNHP: Big Difference!

    I purchased the RNHP 1 month ago, and from day one, right out of the box, it's exceeded my expectations... Yep... Like everything else in life... You get what you pay for. Ohhh Yesss... The Rupert Neve RNHP is making A Big Difference when it comes to critical listening in the studio and casually lis...

    Solid

    The most notable aspect is solid build. It is nice to hold in your hand right outa the box. The only thing I dislike is it automatically resets the input after powering off. I have only put it through its paces for a few days with a pair of 660HDs2 and the both of them together sound like a religous...

    Awesome piece of equipment

    I got this to help push my studio headphones. I currently switch between Sennheiser HD 650 and HD660S2 and Audeze LCD-X. The improvement is almost night and day. Everything comes alive running through the Neve amp. Awesome spatial separation. The lows and highs are more pronounced with definition I ...

    Worth the Price of Admission

    Yes, it is a lot to pay for just a headphone amp, but you will instantly hear what your audio interface interface headphone amp is likely missing. I'm realizing that that listening to my headphones (Beyerdynamic DT 770 80 ohm and DT 1990 Pro 250 ohm) at similar volumes through the RNHP and my audio ...
