Themis V2

[ VERSION  2 ]

What is Themis - [ VERSION 2 ]

Themis V2: A full-analog universal buffer, converter, and powerful headphone amplifier. Building on the first Themis, it offers seamless unbalanced to balanced signal conversion, 0-gain buffer for amplifier inputs, and high-power headphone output (3.5W) with both 3.5mm and 6.3mm options. Features interchangeable op-amps, auto-regulated voltage, and precision ALPS step potentiometer for ultimate audio control.
