bon préampli/ampli casque
je l'utilise surtout en préampli sur un atoll in 50 se en by pass très bon son a tel point que je vais m'équiper d'un ampli de puissance de la même marque il a juste un petit ploque au démarrage et a l'extinction

Preamplifier / Volume Controller / Headphone Amplifier / Source Selector
The IPAR 1023A is a hybrid headphone amplifier / preamplifier / source selector device that displays excellent audio characteristics including a high level power supply, two isolated circuits with independent volume control. It is an ideal choice for mounting a compact audio installation or adding features to an existing system.
The 1023A's headphone amplifier stage operates with a tube (GE5670). The latter benefits from four signal & buffer input switching sets. Naturally, this part is the most delicate and sensitive to disturbances, so it is located opposite the power supply to avoid interference and enjoy a clean and clear signal.
The headphone amplifier stage is positioned to optimize the distance to be covered by the signal up to the 6.35mm jack output. Very flexible, the device is capable of withstanding impedances from 10 to 600 Ohms, which allows it to work with most headsets, from the most basic to the most advanced.
In addition to its headphone amplification function, the device has a preamplification circuit that also uses the vacuum tube circuit. While this configuration induces some distortion, it brings a warm and far from being unpleasant signature.
The headphone output stage and preamplifier are completely independent. This means that each has its own volume control and the two stages can operate simultaneously in complete isolation. Similarly, the power supplies are isolated, which significantly reduces noise and interference in each circuit.
The 1023 A has 4 stereo RCA inputs with color marking. The conductors are made of copper to preserve all the qualities of the signal. The device is complemented by a source selector function that allows effortless navigation between the four inputs. An option that makes the 1023A a very versatile device.
A button on the front panel allows you to switch immediately from one input to another. It is not necessary to respect the input nomenclature. The names "CD / DAC / PC / AUX" are arbitrary and purely indicative markings intended to serve as landmarks.
The 1023A from Ipar has a high-performance power supply consisting of 5 AC power supply groups with 5 first-level voltage regulator groups, followed by 4 sets of two-stage regulators.
This power supply is sealed to the housing to limit vibration and interference, thus contributing to a high signal-to-noise ratio: -114.3dB (headphones) / -113.1dB (Preamp)
Finally, the box displays a selector switch allowing you to choose between a 220V and 110V power supply. This will allow the device to survive a long-distance move.
The headphone circuit has an adjustable gain. The controls are located under the housing and allow you to set the maximum volume gain. This positioning especially avoids accidental disturbances. This option will be very useful to adapt the gain of the headphone amplifier to the needs of the different headset models that will be connected to it.

" We award our Qobuzissime award to this preamplifier with headphone amplifier Ipar 1023A for its high power on its headphone output whose sound qualities are of the highest quality.. "
