Review: Very good little inexpensive amplifier - I got one of these to allow my wife or I to listen at whatever volume we want while keeping the TV speakers muted so the other person can sleep. It works just as I wanted and expected it to. The only problem is that it uses 1/4" TRS jacks for the input and outputs. This is fine if you're using it with standard recording studio/musician's connectors and cables, and of course, that's the market this amp was designed for. I think the manufacturer would sell a TON of these if they made a version with RCA jacks for the input and 1/8" TRS jacks for the headphone outputs. That would match what most consumers will have coming from their TV these days and what they'll find on their headphones/earbuds. So the issue becomes finding 1/8" Female TRS to 1/4" Male TRS adapters that aren't total junk. I tried a few different ones found here, and had extremely poor results from most of them. Most didn't make a secure positive mechanical or electrical connection. It's hard to imagine how they can even sell most of them! But again, this is NOT the fault of this little amplifier, it's just something to be aware of. I finally ordered some adapters from Parts Express (a seller who does sell here on desertcart), but I had to get them directly from that supplier since they didn't seem to have them available here on desertcart. I hope I can say that on here without it being censored or causing friction. Those adapters work perfectly. They fit tight and make solid electrical contact. With that problem taken care of, the unit does just what I need it to do, and the sound quality is plenty good for TV viewing. I'm not going to say that it's an audiophile-grade headphone amp, but it's really not bad at all. Having independent volume controls for up to four people is nice so everyone can use a setting that suits them. As I said, the main use for me is so either my wife or I can watch TV without disturbing the other person if they're sleeping or talking on the phone, etc. We just keep a couple pairs of headphones and this amp at our usual watching position, and it's very handy. I've seen complaints on here about buzzing or receiving AM radio broadcasts. I suspect that in all of these cases, the true culprits are either poor electrical contact when using crummy adapters or cables OR they've managed to allow the metal case of this unit to come into contact with something that's grounded (but not well) to another piece of their equipment, thus creating a "ground loop". Ideally, you will keep this unit's case electrically isolated from anything that might create a ground loop back to your audio source. With this amplifier and your headphones "floating" electrically from everything else, you will not likely get hum or buzz. And with good, solid electrical connections (avoiding poor adapters, etc), you will likely avoid any reception of strong AM radio signals in the area. All of this would be true of any amplifier. The sound quality is perfectly fine for an amp of this price range. It drives various headphones to levels far above anything I've needed. It seems to have fine frequency response and reasonably low distortion. The volume controls move smoothly and create no static. And I've been using it for a few years and had zero reliability issues. So I give the amplifier five stars for doing what it is supposed to do quite well.
Review: GREAT head phone amplifier - Let me start with this amp is great. It is loud and clear. This is my first behringer product ever, I didn't like behringer before but this changed my mind on some of there products (not on there mixers, I'm am a Mackie freak!) We use this amplifier to power a pair a headphones for a drum monitor and it works well, we use a extension cable (25ft) to plug them in but I am worried it could clip because it needs to be loud. It's a shame them couldn't of put a clip light on each channel but the get very loud so it isn't too much of an issue. Power: When they say "4 powerful headphone amplifiers" they really mean POWERFUL!!! I was 3 yards from the headphones and it turned it up and I could hear it pretty good for being 3 yards away so thats powerful. When you are using them in a drum application you need a lot of power and this amp is perfect. I'm worried the headphones will blow!!!! Only problem is it dosen't have a power switch so you have to unplug it to turn it off but it dose have a power light. Sound: This amp will get very lout without causing any extra hum or his. It is very clear for being a behringer product. As it says it is stereo. Connections: This amp has 1/4 trs connecters for all connections (not standard 3.5mm headphone jack you would find on your iPod or computer) If your headphones have a 3.5mm jack (like on an iPod) you will need a 1/4 trs to 3.5mm adapter like this: 3.5mm Stereo Jack To 1/4" Stereo Plug (Black) You will need a 1/4 cable to connect it. If you are connecting it to a headphone port on a computer or iPod or something you will need another one of those adapter and a 3.5mm cable. There is many ways you could connect this. Plug it into a line-level source headphone-source One mistake I made was I only had a mono cable (only using the left side) so it only played in the left side. Make sure you have stereo adapters and cables (balanced) Overall: Pros: Powerful. Clear. Lightweight. Compact. Cons: No power switch. No clip light.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does it come with the extender cord? compatible with M-Audio fast track - cord from the existing headphone jack to amp?**
A: To clarify further, it does NOT come with a cord as stated. What you would want to buy is a 1/4" 'TRS' cord to connect from the Fast Track's headphone jack to the input of this headphone amp. These are available on Amazon as well. If you use a regular 1/4" instrument cable, you lose stereo. TRS sends both right and left signals.

**Q: is this just for volume control, or does it actually amplify bass, highs, lows, etc.**
A: This is not a pre-amp for control of bass, treble, etc.  It doesn't change the tonal characteristics.   It merely amplifies the "line-level" output of a device, such as a TV, a CD player, or DVD, or other device, to the level it takes to drive a pair of stereo headphones.  If you just connected your headphones to the audio output of a CD player without the HA-400, for example, you'd barely be able to hear them.  The HA-400 will drive the headphones at any level, from soft to very loud.   It has four volume controls for four headphone listeners.   You don't have to use all four outputs, but it can drive multiple headphones simultaneously if you want.   I use it so that I can listen to a TV through headphones.  My TV only has a "line-level" output level, not adequate to properly drive headphones.  "Line-Level" refers to the audio output level from an audio source (such as a DVD, CD, VCR, Satellite Receiver, Cable Box, etc.) that needs to connect to an amplifier or other device, such as a TV.   It's normally around 1-Volt peak to peak, which isn't enough to drive a pair of headphones adequately.  The headphone amp will boost it enough to drive the headphones.

**Q: How do I use this with my laptop? I got male extensions but it doesn't seem to be working.**
A: Jay, probably the easiest way is to use the following two items: 1) a 3.5 mm (1/8") to 3.5 mm stereo cable. 2) a 3.5 mm (1/8") to 1/4" stereo headphone adapter.  Plug the 3.5 mm cable into your laptop, then use the adapter to plug into the headphone amp.  If this is basically what you are doing and it doesn't work then you have some issue I can't diagnose from afar.  Tommy

**Q: Does this just split the audio, or does it actually "drive" headphones?  If so, how many Ohms can it handle?**
A: It includes an amp for each channel. I don't know the ohms it can handle but I have plugged in light-weight "walkman" style headphones, good quality audiio headphones and earbuds and all are driven just fine, with plenty of volume.  FYI I use this with an optical-digital-to-RCA converter to convert my HDTV's optical audio out to a power sufficient to drive a pair of headphones through roughly 20 feet of thin "headphone extension cord" cable. In this setup, I use one channel of the Behringer with the pot at about 30% and use separate headphone volume controls to cut this down to comfort level.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great little Amp at small cost.
*by C***N on December 2, 2013*

The amp is pretty good. I bought this because I'm getting sound out of my monitor and it just sounded a bit weak. I just bought a new pair of Audio Technica ATH-M50 headphones, which sounded amazing over the last pair I had. But the base wasn't quite loud enough for me when listening to EDM. This little baby is perfect for cranking the music up till my ears can't take any more! I can usually listen on setting 8 for about and hour or so before I have to turn it back down to a reasonable level again. But it's pure enjoyment. Like others have said, when you turn the volume up to 9 or 10 the sound tends to get a bit distorted. But there's plenty of space on the dial for enjoyment. Other comments have mentioned the portability factor of this is not great, which is probably true. It runs on AC power that needs to an outlet. For me this isn't an issue, it sits on my desk and has enough room on the power strip for it's own plug in. I can see how this could a major issue for someone that is on the move a lot, possibly a musician type. Its' pretty small so it doesn't take up too much space. It's only 4"L x 2.25"H x 1.25"D Since i have a pretty small desk space to work with this works out perfect for me. If you're not a mixing professional audio this thing works just great in my experience. If you do studio work you probably want something a bit more expensive. I also had to pick up some cables from monoprice to get from my monitor to the amp. Just plan ahead cause this thing takes 1/4" male plugs, so you'll need a converter if you don't have one. Most headphones come with one, mine did. The one I received is silver in color and not white like in the picture. After owning this product for sometime now. I would agree with others that there is a slight hiss or feedback when you have the volume on low. It's not noticeable at normal volumes though.
