Pathos Acoustics AURIUM Operating Instructions Manual page 2

Congratulations
Congratulations on your purchase of the Pathos AURIUM
Audiophile-quality headphones, something that we all thought belonged to the '70s, are back. Music enthusiasts from all around
the world are upgrading their listening experience by getting rid of earbuds and connecting high-end headgear to their portable
digital players.
With such great stuff on hand, a shame the only available holes are MP3 players' ones, as most quality amps have lost their jack
sockets since decades. Pathos designers faced this new challenge: can we squeeze our very best quality and technology into a few
cubic centimeters?
The result is the newest Aurium headphone amp.
Pure class A, tube pre stage and MOS-FET power stage, zero feedback, the Aurium performs what audiophiles are used to from
Pathos: exquisite musicality, transparency, dynamics and total lack of listening fatigue. Flexibility is granted by the possibility to
adjust output impedance from 16 to 1,000 Ohm, in order to provide a perfect interface with any kind of headphone.
The volume control — a critical component in every amp — is operated by means of a high precision Burr-Brown device.
Don't skip the BS*, please
