Lush sounding 12AX7 tube headphone amp running 150 regulated volts to the tube plates. With plenty of gain that is uniquely capable of driving headphones rated from 8-2000 Ohms. Having two separate inputs, it’s brilliantly designed to work equally well with different source components. It will produce superb clarity when connected directly to a CD player, computer, phone or DAC. A zero-feedback design guarantees a smooth natural analog response. It will be the thing that kicks your music up a notch, and gets you addicted to this hobby. There is a definite weight to the audio quality, in the sense that everything felt like it had some genuine power driving it.

In a world where headphone amps can cost anywhere from $99 to $1999 and some even $7000. It is hard to find honesty in what is a real true improvement in build quality or sound. How can you read through the online reviews to get a good idea of what to buy when it is clear that some reviews are paid for or that other reviews are not taking into account the full story, in personal experience or knowledge. What I can tell honestly, is that the HA540 is hand built in Salt Lake City, UT by people who have been in the industry for a few decades. We have seen it all, from companies selling the equivalent of snake oil and charging outrageously for it, to honest companies that have unfortunately fallen by the wayside.

At Bellari we take tube based equipment very seriously. No 48V plate voltages here.

We have removed the high cost of point to point wiring and inefficient construction techniques and left the pure analog musical sound that class "A" tubes can offer. Bellari is available to everyone, not just the moneyed few. And when it comes to sound just ask our competitors, their frowns and scowls tell it all - Bellari is one of those rare values that comes from a perfect blend of function and design.

In only seven years Bellari has become a major force in digital recording front ends and for performing musicians. There are Bellari chat rooms on the net and tweakers refining their units to their own tastes. We love our craft and hope music professionals world wide will find joy in using Bellari equipment.
