About This Listing

Ive used this unit so much since I got it at the beginning of 2020. It's such a beast and I loved this amp. Only reason I'm selling is because I have another headphone amp that I'm floating around with and can't justify having both!

ONLY cosmetic damage on the front simply from where a label peeled off after some years time. It's perfect otherwise.


The Purple Audio Cans II headphone and control room preamplifier makes a great addition to your 500 Series rack. Cans II gives you all of the control of a console master section in a sleek, compact module. With Cans II, you'll be able to quickly and easily check the phase and width of mixes without additional DAW routing or plug-ins to tax your CPU. Cans II is also great for headphone amplification in the studio and control room. With its excellent sound quality and control set, Cans II is perfect for driving headphones or monitors in any size studio.
