Sennheiser has this week added a new addition to their range of digital headphone amplifiers, in the form of the newly launched Sennheiser HDVD 800.
The Sennheiser HDVD 800 has been designed to connect with digital sources and is fitted with a high-quality Burr-Brown digital/analog converter (DAC).
The Burr-Brown in the Sennheiser HDVD 800 converts digital audio data into analog signals with a resolution of 24 bits and a sampling rate of up to 192 kHz. Sennheiser explains a little more:
“In addition to the symmetrical inputs, the HDVD 800 also has an asymmetrical input socket; incoming signals are symmetrized before further processing takes place. Digital sources can be connected to the rear of the unit via an XLR (AES/EBU) input, optical and coaxial (S/PDIF) digital inputs or USB.
All digital inputs accept signals up to 24 bit at 192 KHz*. Designed and manufactured in Germany, this high-end, solid-state amplifier harmonizes perfectly and delivers an ultimate acoustic performance when paired with any of Sennheiser’s audiophile headphones.”

The inclusion of both symmetrical and asymmetrical inputs allows for greater flexibility in connecting various audio sources.
Moreover, the HDVD 800’s digital inputs, including XLR, optical, coaxial, and USB, make it compatible with a wide range of devices. This means you can easily connect it to your computer, CD player, or any other digital audio source. The USB input is particularly noteworthy as it allows for direct connection to a computer, making it an excellent choice for those who enjoy high-resolution audio streaming.
