- Dolby Headphone .
- New audio technology licensed by Dolby Labs and soon to appear at the headphone out jacks on most components.
- Not a piece of equipment, but a technology that will be made available in a chip for inclusion by manufacturers in the headphone amp circuit of any component providing a headphone jack. Developed originally by Lake DSP of Australia and now licensed by Dolby Labs, the process is somewhat similar to the erstwhile Auri headphone processor or the Lucas processor sold by Sennheiser, but even more effective. The idea of all these approaches is to provide headphone users - whether watching movies on a plane or late at night at home or listening to stereo music - a sonic experience closer to what they would get from a standard 5. ...
- The Auri and Lucas required the user to select among a series of test tones in order to match the headphone processing more closely to the user's hearing. ... Dolby Headphone makes no serious alteration of frequency response but does succeed in moving the sounds out of the listener's skull and more into the room. ... 1 surround soundtracks and discs it is better to selected Downmix on your processor or receiver, or else - even better - select the PCM Stereo option if offered, and then process with Dolby Headphone. One of Lake's demos at shows is to have the listener sit in the sweet spot of a surround speaker setup and then switch between Dolby Headphone and the actual surround speakers. ...
- The basic Dolby Headphone technology will be indicated by the new logo as shown above on the test DVD. Their will be no adjustment at the headphone jack on most components, but some higher end components may offer two other enhanced acoustical environments. ...
- Singapore and Qantas Airlines have already installed Dolby Headphone on some of their planes' movie systems (while many modern airlines still use 19th-century acoustic ear tubes!!). ... Dolby Headphone makes a great counterpart to the new Dolby Pro Logic II, since both will bring the surround sound experience to more people in more different situations and also make use of the preponderance of sound sources that are plain old vanilla stereo rather than one of the new digital surround sound formats.

- Slee Solo Mark III Headphone Amplifier.
- Product: Slee Solo Mark III Headphone Amplifier.
- If you remember, a while back Nels and I did a co-review of the Maxed Out Headroom Amp and some other really cool headphone gear. ... Over the years, I never really considered headphone use and audiophile gear to be in the same class. ... I loved headphones so much that I even bought one of those headphone extension cords so I could sit across the room in my comfy chair and just chill to my favorite music in total privacy. ...
- " All that as an aside, shortly after Nels and I published the Headroom review, TNT-Audio's old friend Graham Slee dropped me a note asking if I might be interested in giving a listen to his headphone amp, the Solo. ... I found the Solo headphone amp, a few different power supplies to play with and the most excellent Jazz Club (which I purchased for my 78 collection, watch for the review this fall). ...
- The Solo Mark III is Grahams third iteration (well duuuh) of his initial headphone amp design (also reviewed by TNT-Audio). ... On the front is a ¼" TRS (tip ring sleeve) female socket (see pic above) for your headphone jack, a three position switch that controls two separate source inputs on the back of the unit (source 1, open, source 2) and a very smooth Alps volume pot. ... The Solo is optimized for headphone impedances of 30 to 300 ohms. ...
- As you can (sort of) see from the pics, the Solo is an Opamp based headphone amp, much like it's contemporaries. ...
- So just how can this headphone amp sound so damned good and be so musical without all of those audiovile parts? Well, I guess it all boils down to proper design and extensive listening tests. ... It's more than obvious to me that Graham has done his homework in the building the next generation of this headphone amp. ...
- Here we have a competing design that is less than ½ of the price of what many consider the do all - end all of headphone amps. ... Kind of over kill for a headphone amp. ... Headphone amps don't. Cool as all that mass and machining may be, headphone amps only need to be heavy enough not to slide off your table beside you, that's it. ... What more do you need (besides a good source to mate with the Solo)? So, if you're in the market for a great sounding headphone amp and don't want to drop the kilo-bucks needed for "the other guys" amp, I'd seriously consider the Graham Slee's Solo. ...

- The reason this spot wears out is because it is more prone to bending than any part of the headphone wire. ...
- The device I have in mind is a sort of splint that attaches to the base of the jack (where it would enter the musical device) with adhesive, and then extends to about an inch into the greater headphone wire and fixes with an adhesive washer. ...
- I think headphone strain relief is usually quite underdesigned.

- But there have always been problems that kept me from getting really serious about headphone reproduction. ... Wrong! Fact is, most headphones that sound good require quite a bit more power than your typical headphone jack is capable of producing cleanly. And since your average headphone is considerably more revealing than similarly priced speakers, you don't have to spend much to get headphones that highlight all the flaws of the equipment you have them hooked up to. ...
- Apparently I wasn't the only person dissatisfied with the state of headphone listening. HeadRoom has made quite a name for itself over the last few years by making headphone products that address all the problems I've noticed, and selling them for reasonable prices. This month we'll take a look at their least expensive headphone amplifier, the Little HeadRoom. ...
- It's possible to add a headphone output to just about anything with a few cheap parts; get yourself a little op-amp, hook it up to a jack, and you're off and running with headphone sound. ...
- The best headphone jack I'd ever used before was on an Adcom GTP-400 preamp. ... This gave considerably more power to the bass on the Sennheiser phones I was using at the time, and was just all around better than the headphone output on my CD player. ... While op-amps are not normally renowned for their audio prowess, they're sufficient for the amount of current needed for headphone use--but only if you get good ones. ... The more upscale Headphone products incorporate the even better Burr-Brown 627 op-amp.
- The front includes the headphone jack, a volume control, and two switches to control what processing the unit does. ...
- Get yourself an adapter that converts the stereo headphone jack into two RCA plugs, and you've got a single input preamp. ...
- This was never a problem with regular headphone listening. ...
- When I first flipped the switch on, I was expecting some dramatic expansion of the headphone sound. ... In comparison, regular headphone listening seems clumped up into sound blobs at each ear. ...

- In HEADPHONE-DRIVEN PERFORMANCE performers try to imitate vocal sounds that are played over headphones. ... To preserve the necessary element of surprise, each performer can execute a given role only once, or, alternatively, the headphone input must be different from night to night. ...
- Headphone-driven performance is not an improvisation. ... The accompaniment and all of the headphone parts come from a single 8-channel digital tape. ...
- Headphone-driven performance focuses attention on the present moment--no one knows what will happen next, and the performers can't afford to look back. ...
- Headphone-driven performance exposes the technology of the recording studio by turning it inside out: recording equipment is normally used to translate what is live and ephemeral into something static (for the purpose of mass production). ...
- So far, the headphone-driven pieces include .
- the 80-minute Spell for Opening the Mouth of N, for eight wireless-headphone-driven singer/actor/movers and a dance company of ten. ...

12. Understanding Headphone Power Requirements

- Understanding Headphone Power Requirements with the HC 6.
- Much confusion abounds regarding headphone power requirements. This RaneNote is intended to disperse some of the mist surrounding headphone specifications and hopefully give you a clearer understanding of how much power is really needed for your application.
- Headphone Sensitivity.
- Headphone manufacturers specify a sensitivity rating for their products that is very similar to loudspeaker sensitivity ratings. ... Sensitivity is then stated as the number of dB of actual sound level (SPL) produced by the headphones with 1 mW of input; headphone specifications commonly refer to this by the misleading term dB/mW. ...
- Think about these sensitivity definitions a moment: headphone sensitivity is rated using 1/1000 of a watt; loudspeaker sensitivity is rated using 1 watt. ... Their headphone jacks typically provide only 10-20 mW of output Power.
- As an aid in finding out how much power is available from the MH 4 Headphone Console, we have compiled a listing of popular headphones. Included is a column giving the maximum SPL obtainable using the MH 4 and any particular headphone. ...
- Note that the maximum achievable SPL varies widely for different models and manufacturers, ranging from a low of 107 dB to a harmful 146 dB! The table also shows there is very little relationship between headphone impedance and sensitivity, and that power output alone means nothing, since in one case 80 mW produces a maximum SPL of 107 dB, yet in another case the same 80 mW yields an SPL of 124 dB!.
- Disclaimer: The headphone specifications were supplied to us by the respective manufacturers, subject to change without notice.
