OPPO HA-1 Headphone Amplifier Review

OPPO HA-1 Headphone Amplifier Review. The HA-1 is balanced, Pure Class A, with Bluetooth, VU meters, graphical display, balanced headphone output.

OPPO continues to amaze everyone with their products. The is a legend. Now the are startling us all, and the HA-1 . . . well, all I can say is if OPPO were a publicly traded stock, I would be sad that I couldn’t buy any, since I review their products.

Oppo HA-1 DAC/Preamp/Headphone Amplifier Reviewed

Steven Stone reviews Oppo Digital's HA-1, which combines an excellent headphone amplifier, a stereo preamp, and a digital-to-analog converter into one well-constructed $1,199 package.

The HA-1 is beautifully built ; The HA-1 supports all current digital formats ; The HA-1's sonic character doesn't change as the volume goes up ; The HA-1 can power even hard-to-drive headphones to satisfying volume levels

The line output does not automatically mute when a headphone is plugged in ; The remote volume control is over-sensitive ; The Class-A amplifier section runs warm and requires adequate ventilation ; With highly sensitive earphones, the HA-1 may produce...

When audiophiles use the term "high end," they are usually referring to a component's performance AND its price. Ever since The Absolute Sound's Harry Pearson initiated the "I have the best toys, and you don't" gambit, high-performance audio gear has...

Review: Oppo HA-1 Headphone Amp - Hi Res Audio Central

The HA-1 from Oppo is the company's first headphone amp, not a surprising edition to their line considering the PM-1 headphones released earlier this year. As impressive as the headphones are, the amp might be even more so. Check out Geoff Morrison's...

Oppo HA-1 review

Consumer review (head-fi.org)

Oppo's HA-1 is a very flexible headphone amp and home theatre DAC/pre-amp and about spot-on for the money.

Thanks to Oppo Digital Japan for allowing us to borrow the PM-1 and HA-1. Oppo coming out with a pair of headphones was quite a surprised, especially a pair of planars. Likewise the HA-1, though it is logical that a company would provide an appropriate...

No lack of inputs, including Bluetooth; Headphone amp is good all-round with plenty of power; Functionality is well thought-out

Mute function for the pre-amp output only accessible on the remote. Knob feel for the volume is terrible. Display text is hard to read at a distance
