The Novafidelity HA500H DAC & Headphone Amplifier is Novafidelity’s first dedicated hybrid headphone amplifier packed with an array of unique and versatile features. The HA500H is powered by ECC82 as well as transistor op amps and can be operated in both valve and solid-state mode depending on the listener’s preference, or the type of musical material being enjoyed.

The Novafidelity HA500H features a unique dual Sabre DAC configuration, making it capable of achieving a greatly increased dynamic range as well as an improvement in sound quality.

The Novafidelity HA500H supports as many headphone models as possible and features a high/low impedance switch. This switch caters for a wide range of source and headphone models and can easily power and support any headphone rated from 16 all the way up to 600 ohms.

Keeping up with wireless trends, Bluetooth A2DP and AVRCP profiles are supported along with  SBC (Subbabd codec), aptX, AAC and MP3 formats.
