The Blue Hawaii Special Edition electrostatic headphone amplifier is truly a work of art. With extraordinary sound and build quality to match, the BHSE pairs with our VOCE electrostatic headphone to deliver the ultimate electrostatic headphone experience. The Blue Hawaii SE is the flagship HeadAmp electrostatic amplifier and is the culmination of over a decade's experience building electrostatic headphone amplifiers. The Blue Hawaii SE is designed not only to power the toughest headphone loads on the market, but to do so for a lifetime. No expense was spared in the design and build of the Blue Hawaii SE and every amplifier is tested extensively throughout the build process, with an extensive burn-in process to ensure the best possible performance.
The Blue Hawaii SE is available with two volume control options. The first is a 24-level step attenuator that ensures perfect channel matching at each volume step. For those who desire infinitely granular volume control we offer the ALPS RK50 potentiometer, the highest-grade part of its kind, giving you the freedom to set the volume just-so without compromising sound quality.
There are also two options for feet on the Blue Hawaii SE. The precisely machined and finished aluminum spike feet match the accent color of the front panels and tube rings and are compatible with various audiophile isolation platforms. We also offer a set of rubber feet that offer different isolation characteristics and a non-mar option for delicate surfaces.
