Great Headphone Amplifier
Iâve owned Mackie products in the past and they are always well built workhorses. This headphone amp is no different. Itâs nothing fancy but it does its job exceptionally well. Crystal clear output and adds enough volume.

Really disappointed in Mackie
Never knew it was possible to hate a headphone amp as much as I hate this thing, but wow, what a disappointment.First, the good news… it sounds good when it’s working.However mine has a bad channel in the Headphone 1 mix which of course I discovered during a session. The singer complained that he could only hear from one side of the phones. After about 20 minutes of troubleshooting I discovered it was the brand new headphone amp and quickly switched over to mix 2 to complete the session.That would have been enough except there was more fun. I couldn’t get the unit out of the rack. After pulling everything our around it I discovered that the thing is over the standard 1.75 inches! The chassis itself IS exactly 1.75 inches, but it has four round head screws that protrude about another 1/16th inch out the bottom. SO in trying to remove it from the rack, I discovered that I had gouged the chassis of the piece of gear below with those four screw heads.Oh and I slapped the chassis once I had it removed and the bad channel popped on. Woohoo!I have used tons of Mackie gear over the years and always liked it because it was always bullet proof. Been a while since I purchased any of their gear but I fear that things have changed. This was a total fail and I would strongly urge you look elsewhere.Side note… right before I wrote this review I noticed another reviewer stating that the unit is mono not stereo because the reviewer is only hearing out of one side of his headphones. Looks like some serious quality control issues.
