The LL2A output
For the output of the LL2A to have a title of its own, it must be
unique, and it is.
What is used on the output is part of what inspired me to create the
LL2A. The Monotor headphone amp has been an enormous suc-
cess for Little Labs, utilizing top-notch passive components and a
single very low output impedance simple current driver. The LL2A
uses this same driver and passive components, and the only other
active device in the audio signal path is the linear analog multiplier
on the input. This allows the LL2A to have a 0.5-ohm output im-
pedance. Why is that good? Well, if you happen to be feeding after
the LL2A vintage transformer gear, transformers love a super low
output impedance.
As an analogy, it’s like the difference between driving a V6 car and a
V8 supercharged. Sonically it is pure, effortless acceleration.
Also, get this; if you are using the LL2A stereo unbalanced, you can
plug your headphone into the TRS output to monitor the purest of
the pure post limiter audio, and it sounds killer!
Very handy when demoing!
