WANDLA, now with a headphone amplifier

WANDLA HP is essentially WANDLA with a great-sounding headphone amplifier built in. It sits comfortably between Ferrum’s entry-level ERCO and the super-flagship pairing of WANDLA with OOR – ideal for headphone enthusiasts who want more than ERCO offers without moving to separates.

Incorporating all of WANDLA’s features and specifications, Ferrum’s engineers have integrated a powerful, fully balanced composite IC headphone amplifier with performance very close to OOR. The whole signal path is truly balanced – even RCA inputs are converted to balanced at the first active stage.

Made for HYPSOS

Performs beautifully straight out of the box, but can be taken further still when paired with the Ferrum HYPSOS hybrid power supply via the proprietary Ferrum Power Link (FPL) connection with 4-terminal voltage sensing.
