Product details

Solving both the tonal imbalance and the spatial separation when listening through headphones is already a challenge. However, achieving this in a portable, stand-alone hardware device is a true innovation. ARC ON-EAR is a studio-quality converter and headphone amplifier that integrates both headphone calibration and studio simulation. It delivers a consistently accurate, loudspeaker-like reference experience - without the need for plugins, software hosts or DAW setups. It can store up to five presets in internal memory for instant recall - making ARC ON-EAR the world's first truly stand-alone headphone correction system that works with virtually any headphone model.

Highlights:

  • Studio-quality analogue/digital converter
  • 200 mW headphone amplifier with low distortion
  • Digitally controlled analogue volume control
  • High-definition headphone calibration
  • Room listening simulation for critical mixing
  • Dedicated pushbuttons to bypass calibration and studio simulation
  • User assignable button
  • Integrated lithium battery, up to 4 hours operating time
  • Analogue input via 3.5 mm jack plug
  • Headphone output via 6.3 mm jack plug
  • Digital audio input via USB-C
  • 5 storable presets
  • Carrying case included
  • Companion app for managing presets and settings
