Applied Research & Technology, a division of Yorkville Sound, has developed the HP-1 In-Ear Monitor Amplifier. This new addition to the ARTcessories line is affordable, reliable, and uniquely compact.
The HP-1 is a battery-powered headphone amplifier that delivers excellent performance to portable applications. Providing a high output level when used with a variety of different headphones, the unit is affordable and easy to use for in-ear monitoring applications. “In-ear monitors are becoming a strong preference for live performers, but can be costly,” says Steve Hendee, Yorkville Sound’s US Director of Sales. “With the HP-1, a performer can have a self-monitoring solution in a lightweight unit.”
The HP-1 is affixed with a sturdy belt clip and weighs in at just over half a pound. The entire unit can be worn discreetly on stage by a performer, used in studio applications, or for personal listening.
The HP-1 is packaged in a rugged extrusion, with heavy-duty jacks, including a locking 1/4″/XLR combo input jack. “Reliability is key to the HP-1 on every level,” says Hendee. “The nature of this unit is to be a long-term road companion from one gig to the next, whether it be the stage or studio.” Powered by two AA batteries, a use can exceed 40 hours.
Expand the application of any headphone set to include the in-ear monitor experience with the ART HP-1.
