GEN-300B Update #7.5 :Expanding Headphone Compatibility

We’ve recently received some feedback on the GEN-300B’s headphone output with extremely demanding headphones.

Our design prioritizes safety, reliability, and broad compatibility. The front headphone output is intentionally optimized for everyday use across a wide range of headphones rather than maximum power for a few demanding models.

For users who want the amplifier’s full capability with headphones like the Tungsten, we’re developing a Speaker Binding Post to 4-Pin XLR Headphone Adapter. This optional accessory will allow compatible headphones to connect directly to the speaker outputs.

We don’t generally recommend connecting headphones to speaker terminals — higher power levels could damage sensitive models. Please always follow your headphone manufacturer’s guidelines.

We'd also like to thank you again for your incredible support and patience. While we only managed to send out a few units before T.H.E. Show in SoCal, we are now going full speed at getting rest of the Founder's Edition amps into your hands. We expect to begin shipping again next week.

At the same time, our second production run is underway, with availability expected in October. We’re thrilled by the warm response at T.H.E. Show and can’t wait to see everyone at CanJam SoCal this August. Your enthusiasm and feedback continue to inspire us.

Cheers,

Layer Audio Design Team
