Lake People G103-B MKII 2-Channel Headphone Amplifier Review
The G103-B MKII combines clean performance with a compact, durable design. Its balanced XLR inputs help maintain a strong, low-noise signal, while the OPA551 power op-amps provide dependable headphone drive. Internal gain can be set across five levels from -6 dB to +18 dB, making it easier to match different headphones. The circuit also includes filters that help prevent low and high frequency overload. Unlike versions intended for standard operation, the Broadcast Version has its power switch deactivated, so the unit cannot be manually switched off during operation. It also uses a built-in mains transformer and rugged aluminum case for reliable long term use.
