The 8-channel POWERPLAY PRO-8 HA8000 features superior performance, routing and mixing functions to accommodate even the most discerning set of ears. Two independent stereo Main Inputs, along with a dedicated Direct Input on each channel allows individual performers to obtain a more customized monitoring mix. When optimized mixes have to reach multiple listeners, each with their own specific requirements, the HA8000 delivers high-quality headphone mixing in a class all its own!

The HA8000 offers 8 high-power amplifiers that can drive loads down to 8 Ohms. Each amplifier section features its own 8-digit LED Output Level meter, Main In 1/Main In 2 select switch, a stereo or dual mono select switch, and a 1/4" Direct Input for integrating an additional sound source. The front panel gives you one 1/4" Phones Out jack per channel. The Main Section features a dedicated 5-segment LED Input meter, plus Main In 1 and Main In 2 Level dials.

On the back panel you'll find an additional 1/4" Phones Output per channel, allowing up to 16 pairs of headphones to listen to 8 separate mixes at once. The back panel also provides access to the HA8000's per-channel Direct Inputs and the Main 1 & 2 Inputs.
