Headphone Amps
Graham Slee Voyager
The Voyager is a truly portable headphone amplifier. It is small and light enough to fit a shirt pocket! It also has a similar "footprint" to a regular pod player which will sit on top. It connects using a supplied jack-lead and even via a pod player's headphone out, sounds remarkably good, saving the need for an expensive dock connector.
The Voyager portable headphone amplifier features a contour switch to equalise street-wear headphones, emulating the sound you get from "home" or hi-fi headphones - putting back that missing bottom-end bass and replacing the usual scratchy highs with the whole clarity that makes this portable headphone amplifier "hard to switch-off".

Graham Slee Novo
The budget Novo headphone amplifier is the latest addition to the Graham Slee headphone amplifier range. Surprisingly the Novo is a discrete-transistorized "power-amp in miniature" dedicated to headphone-fidelity. Usually headphone amplifiers at this price are based on a simple "cheap and cheerful" integrated circuit!
The Novo includes an innovative second negative feedback (NFB) network which signals it to give extra drive when dealing with the difficult or complex loads most headphones represent. As a result this diminutive powerhouse gives an energetic presentation and big punchy bass with great definition - in fact its forte is presenting detail in an unforced and natural way.
Measuring just 107 x 125 x 50mm and weighing in at less than half a kilo (about one pound) it's unquestionably a miniature and its size belies its ability to convey music with an immense feeling of energy.
Controversially, it is powered by a tiny plug style switched-mode power supply - such technology doesn't usually lead to results like these! However, it does mean that the Novo is an energy saving product and therefore complies with future implementing measures in eco-design, as will be required under the Energy-using Products Regulations 2007. Furthermore it is fully compliant with the European RoHS directive meaning the Novo headphone amplifier is truly green!
