FiiO JadeAudio GIGAS 1 Desktop Headphone Amplifier

The JadeAudio GIGAS 1 is a compact desktop headphone amplifier designed to deliver the power demanded by planar magnetic and other difficult-to-drive headphones. Its discrete Class AB amplifier architecture provides substantial output power while maintaining a straightforward, purpose-built design focused entirely on headphone amplification.

Through its 4.4 mm balanced headphone output, the GIGAS 1 can deliver up to 4,600 mW per channel, providing ample power reserve for demanding planar headphones. A 3.5 mm single-ended headphone connection is also provided, with CTIA microphone pass-through support for compatible headsets.

RCA and 3.5 mm analogue inputs make the GIGAS 1 easy to integrate with DACs, CD players, portable music players and other analogue sources. Selectable High and Low Gain modes allow its amplification to be matched to headphones with different power requirements.

The GIGAS 1 is a dedicated analogue headphone amplifier and does not include a built-in DAC or Bluetooth connectivity, making it an ideal choice for a simple desktop system built around an existing audio source or standalone DAC.
