Wells Audio Milo Headphone Amp

Wells Audio Milo Headphone Amp

$1,699.00

The
Milo headphone amplifier was designed to bring the same famous and
award winning sound to a headphone amplifier package that had a smaller
footprint for possible use at a desktop and was more affordable allowing
audiophiles wishing to experience the magic of a Wells Audio product
but at a price point that they could afford. With the development of the
Milo we believe that they have accomplished just that. It has been
described by reviewers and customers alike as up to 95% of the
performance of the legendary Headtrip amplifier. It’s small footprint
and whimsical design have also helped to make it a very popular choice.
As with all Wells Audio products the Milo is custom built in the USA
from the best parts money can buy  allowing us to accommodate special
features requested by customers.

Technical Specs

  • Output
    Power-18 watts rms into 8 ohms at 1kHz with no more than .015% THD-12
    watts rms into 32 ohms @ .006% THD-10 watts @46 ohms @.005% THD
  • Frequency Response-+/- 0.25 db from 16Hz to 30kHz
  • Signal To Noise Ratio- -94db at full power
  • Input Sensitivity-0.72mV RMS
  • Gain-30db (12db attenuator available, see below)
  • Input Impedance-17k ohms
  • Output Impedance-0.1 ohms
  • Damping Factor-80, reference 8 ohms nominal
  • Power Consumption-42 watts @ idle, 145 watts @ maximum power
  • Inputs- 1 pair RCAs, 1 pair XLRs optional (add $200.00)
  • Outputs- 1 x 4 pin stereo balanced connector, 1 1/4"stereo plug
  • Operating  Voltage-120 volt, 230 volt at 50 or 60 Hz
  • Shipping Dimensions-16" x 12" x 12"
  • Shipping Weight-10 lbs.
  • Dimensions-8"w x 7.5"d x 9.75"h

 The
Milo can also be ordered with a premium Khozmo stepped attenuator for
an additional $400.00. For an additional $150.00 a pair of Vishay "Naked
Z Foil" series resistors can be added to the Khozmo. After
communicating with Khozmo we are able to order the Khozmo stepped
attenuators with a new more aggressive logrithmic taper that allows for
less gain at the beginning. This has allowed us to offer the Milo
without the restraint of an added attenuation circuit when purchasing
the Milo with a Khozmo attenuator.

 

Beginning October 1,
2017 the Milo will be available in a Reference version. Building upon
the remarkable performance of the basic Milo the Milo Reference will
contain the Khozmo attenuator with Vishay series resistors, new modified
very high performance PCBs (images seen below) which will feature cryo
treated traces, nearly two dozen Vishay "naked Z foil" resistors in the
signal path and a Rike copper foil-polypropylene capacitor in the signal
path between the input and output stages. a new Bybee Tech "mini AC
purifier" has recently been developed which allows for placement within
the tight confines of the Milo allowing for an even lower noise floor
than the basic Milo sports.   To round out the improvements a Furutech
gold IEC will be installed. Price for the Milo Reference is $5000.00.
Current owners of Milos, as is our policy, can send their units in for
upgrade to the Reference level. Cost of the upgrade is $3300.00 for a
basic Milo and  $2750.00 for the Khozmo equipped Milo.
