The TI-1b, Ribbon/Amp Interface
TI-1b At A Glance
The TI-1b provides impedance matching of our True Ribbon Headphones (0.2Ω) to headphone amplifiers having 2-watts to 6-watts of output power when driving 16Ω or 32Ω loads.
Higher powered amplifiers also work well with the TI-1b if, mindful attention to volume setting is observed and maintained.
Typical connection from the TI-1b to a headphone amplifier is made using our ITI-XLR (4-pin to 4-pin) cable. For amplifiers having only a 6.3mm (tip, ring, sleeve) headphone connection, we offer our ITI-TRS cable.
When connecting to a 2-channel speaker amp, with binding post speaker outputs, we offer our ITI-BAN (banana) cable or our ITI-SPD (spade) cable.
