This is a phenomenal Rogue Audio RH-5 tube hybrid balanced headphone amp and preamp. So good, that I have two. Downsizing my system and slowly getting out of tube audio is the reason for the sale.

I've used this as a headphone amp and as a preamp with a variety of amps, including the Rogue Stereo 100, Benchmark AHB2, Threshold S200, Schiit Vidar, and others, and it has always been a great sounding piece of equipment, with excellent staging and tonality. Compared to something solid state, like the Benchmark HPA4, this adds just a touch of sweet lushness due to the tube hybrid output. Voices sound more organic and a bit further back on the stage, bass is a bit more rounded, but you still get all the detail, layering, and amazing holographic soundstaging. Variable gain also makes it brilliant with a wide variety of headphones.

This unit looks basically new. No flaws to mention. It comes with the stock JJs tubes and some NOS green label Baldwin Organs (made by Sylvania) tubes that I recently put in and have maybe 10 hours on. This also includes the stock plastic remote. The screws to hold the cover on are also included but not pictured.

My asking price includes insured UPS ground shipping in the U.S. Ships in original box with manual, remote, 2 sets of tubes mentioned, and power cord.
