The balanced inputs feature high common mode rejection and are normalled together so that plugging into one jack will put a mono signal in both ears. Unbalanced inputs skip the integrated balanced line reciever and can be used at the same time as the balanced inputs. There are two sets of inputs: RCA unbalanced and 1/4" TRS balanced. The Headphone Amp also features a white LED power indicator and a bright red clip indicator. Crossfeed makes your headphones sound a bit more like listening on speakers. The push button is to engage the crossfeed circuit to reduce the extreme channel isolation that headphones exhibit. The large volume knob feels nice and is easy to adjust. Two outputs allow you to drive multiple sets of headphones. The convenient desktop form factor, high power and transparent operation make it ideal for any high quality headphone reference system. Originally made for in-house testing of the STO-2 microphones, the Avenson Headphone Amp is designed to bring out the best in your headphones.

The amp is also very well made, it's pretty compact for what it is capable of. I've tried K3003, FX850, RS1, TH900, ED8, HE560, HD800 and T1, they all sound fantastic with this amp with zero background noise.
