Reviews

"The EarMen L-Amp MK2 portable tube amplifier is an improvement across the board over the first, and I highly recommend a listen, especially if you have the first version or would like to try affordable portable tube gear. Yes, the price has increased, but when you factor in the improvements, it is a no-brainer to me."

About EarMen L‑Amp MKII

The EarMen L‑Amp MKII is the smallest fully tube-based DAC/headphone amplifier/preamplifier on the market, designed for audiophiles, headphone enthusiasts, and analog lovers seeking rich tube sound in a portable high-end format.

Crafted and assembled in Europe from NOS tubes, high-quality components, and CNC-milled aluminum, the L‑Amp MK2 takes the warmth and clarity of the original to a new level.

Rediscover sound

The L-Amp MK2 combines the warmth of classic tubes with modern engineering precision, delivering an emotionally engaging listening experience in a compact, portable format. 

It uses NOS-JAN6418 tubes and delivers 1 W at 8 Ω, allowing it to drive even demanding headphones while preserving the subtle sonic character that only tubes can offer.

If microphonics ever occur due to external vibration, simply reconnect the USB-C cable – the microphonics will disappear, but the magic of the tubes will remain.
