Each headphone output is separate,features balanced operation, and boasts the same 120dBA signal-to-noise ratio as the ADI-2 Pro FS R's lineoutputs. Even with sensitive headphones, hum or noise won't spoil your listening experience. The ExtremePower design incorporates current limiting, power surveillance, overload detection, and DC protection. Lowpower and high power modes are also available to match the impedance of your headphones. Having two stereooutputs with balanced headphones is possible with the newly developed Advanced Balanced mode. This moderemoves most limitations of standard balanced operation and turns the ADI-2 Pro FS R into a powerhouse.
