Description
One job. Done perfectly.
Designed by Orchard Audio in collaboration with Z Reviews, the Valencia is a fully-balanced headphone power amplifier that delivers up to 17W into 32Ω with inaudible noise and distortion. With a no-compromise Class AB architecture, the Valencia ditches distractions and keeps only what’s absolutely necessary.
There’s no gain switch. No volume knob.
No alternate inputs. Just uncolored, endgame power.
Made for balanced systems The Valencia is a true balanced headphone power amplifier, built from the ground up to run balanced headphone systems. The input is via a single set of XLR connectors.
4mm Pentaconn adapter included. Keep your signal chain clean The signal path is stripped to the essentials.
There’s no onboard volume control or gain stage—just one fixed 14dB gain, independently regulated for each channel. That means you’ll need to manage volume with a DAC or preamp.
Dead-quiet background At >134dB SNR and 118dB SINAD, the Valencia is among the cleanest amps ever made. Even sensitive IEMs will come through without hiss.
The Valencia adds nothing: not warmth, not grain, not edge. Just power, passing through only the flavor of the equipment that comes before it.
Speaker taps included Rear banana-style speaker taps make it easy to power high-efficiency passive speakers (≥95dB/W) in a small room. Just don’t plug in headphones at the same time—those taps are live.
Built-in protection, worldwide ready The rear of the unit features a hard power switch and supports a universal 90–264V AC input, making it travel-ready with only a new power cable. On the front, a soft off-white LED ring indicates power state.

The Valencia has no sound, no coloration. It is a transparent window.
