Headphone Amplifier
- Upgrade to
Solo Ultra Linear
This page will be updated because the upgrade is now to the Solo
Ultra-Linear at the same price as the Solo SRGII upgrade.
The Ultra Linear upgrade is
available here. Select your shop location and click the "Upgrades"
link from the Go To menu.
Earlier versions of the Solo headphone amplifier housed in the same
enclosure as shown can now be factory upgraded to the SRGII
version.
"As you can imagine I am very satisfied with the
additional bass, it is there and you can hear it easily enough, plus you
can hear a "filling out" of the lower to mid bass as well. While this
may entice some what really has me "tickled to death" is the wider
soundstage, longer decay of the notes, and additional clarity
(beautifully heard on the opening and closing of the hi-hat) of the Solo SRG-II."
[Solo SRG
versus Solo SRG-II, Owners Forum "Beta-Test" Review]
The Solo SRGII headphone amplifier factory upgrade involves fitting a
completely new fully tested PCB assembly. It is in fact like getting a
brand new Solo SRGII but reusing your existing case.
An op-amp socket is used on the PCB so that any future op-amp upgrade can
be easily accomodated.
The Solo SRGII headphone amplifier upgrade marks the beginning of our
factory upgrade service being extended to other products -
headphone amplifiers and phono stage preamps - as improved versions are
introduced.
How to order
