How can the output impedance of the Pathos Aurium be adjusted?
The output impedance is adjustable from 16 to 1,000 ohms via a knob on the rear panel, allowing compatibility with a variety of headphones.
What inputs does the Pathos Aurium offer for audio sources?
The amplifier features one balanced XLR input and three unbalanced RCA line inputs for connecting various audio sources.
Is it possible to connect the Pathos Aurium to an external preamplifier?
Yes, the Aurium has a TAPE OUT output (both XLR and RCA) that allows the signal to be routed to an external preamplifier or recording device.
How is the volume controlled on the Pathos Aurium?
Volume is precisely controlled via a high-performance Burr-Brown device, controlled by an ALPS potentiometer for optimal channel separation.
Can the Pathos Aurium be used with both low- and high-impedance headphones?
Yes, thanks to the adjustable output impedance, the Aurium is suitable for headphones with impedances ranging from 16 to 1,000 ohms.
What is the output power of the Pathos Aurium?
The amplifier delivers 3.6 W at 16 Ohms in Class A without counter-coupling, which is sufficient for most headphones.
What frequency response does the Pathos Aurium offer?
The frequency response runs from 10 Hz to 80 kHz, providing a wide and detailed soundstage.
Is the Pathos Aurium suitable for use with in-ear monitors (IEMs)?
Yes, the low output impedance and adjustable gain make the Aurium suitable for both IEMs and over-ear headphones.
How is the power supply of the Pathos Aurium regulated?
The amplifier has a separate power supply to keep hum and magnetic fields away from the sensitive audio circuits, resulting in a cleaner sound.
What are the dimensions and weight of the Pathos Aurium?
The dimensions are 20 cm (D) x 23 cm (W) x 6 cm (H) and the weight is 3 kg, making for a compact and sturdy build.
