MICROAMP HA400
If you’re tracking more than one musician at a time, or if everyone in the group wants to listen to the playback, you’re need a monitor distribution system. A distribution system allows everyone to listen in, and control the volume of his or her own headphones. The compact and flexible HA400 can power up to 4 pairs of headphones and up to 4 independent volumes, with outstanding audio quality – even at maximum volume!
Altogether Now
You can use this super-compact stereo headphone amplifier with practically any headphones – four of them at the same time, to be exact! Let up to 4 different people in your studio listen to the main mix while recording, and each listener can determine their own preferred volume level using the dedicated output level controls. The HA400 contains 4 high-power stereo amplifiers that maintain the highest sonic quality even at maximum volume levels. Ultra low-noise 4580 operational amplifiers are employed for outstanding audio performance – these are the same op amps found in “full-size” audio equipment – plus, a dedicated 12-Volt DC adapter is included.
Great Sound, Great Value
When a recording session calls for everyone’s heads – and ears to be in the game, the HA400 is the perfect solution – and a real money-saver! Let your ears guide you by checking out the amazing HA400 at a BEHRINGER dealer near you – or get yours online today.

I got one of these to allow my wife or I to listen at whatever volume we want while keeping the TV speakers muted so the other person can sleep. It works just as I wanted and expected it to.
The only problem is that it uses 1/4″ TRS jacks for the input and outputs. This is fine if you’re using it with standard recording studio/musician’s connectors and cables, and of course, that’s the market this amp was designed for. I think the manufacturer would sell a TON of these if they made a version with RCA jacks for the input and 1/8″ TRS jacks for the headphone outputs. That would match what most consumers will have coming from their TV these days and what they’ll find on their headphones/earbuds.

Recently I purchased an Elgato Wave XLR. I also purchased beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO headphones to go along with it. What I expected was to be able to use the headphones with the Wave XLR. However, I quickly found out that while the Wave XLR is capable of powering the DT 990 PRO headphones, you had to set the volume on the Wave XLR to full to have a ‘normal’ level of volume. I really like the Wave XLR and I could have purchased and used a DAC just for the headphones, but I would not have been able to monitor the microphone with out some sort of delay. (Sure I could have also switched to a DAC that could power the headphones, but I really liked what the Wave XLR brought).
Backstory over, I bought this amplifier because I just wanted a bit of boost to the headphones. This item works great for that purpose. I don’t have any hissing, no static when adjusting volume, and no other apparent interference with it.

I have a small production studio in my home and for many years I have just gotten by with a headphone splitter as I usually only have myself and one client at a time. However, there are times where there may be more than one person listening in and it comes in handy to have a unit such as this. I have actually had this unit saved on my wish list for years and can’t really explain why it took me this long to purchase. I am so glad that I did. The unit is well-made and has a good look to it. It performs fantastic with no , kind of noise and the buttons feel of high quality. Definitely worth the money.

I bought this as a four channel audio duplication and disturbution system for a church streaming and podcast recording setup. Easy to setup. Audio quality is great and the quality of the pots for volume control on each channel are good and have no hiss or crackle when adjusting them. Works well with line level singals, mixer desk monitor outputs, computer line inputs and headphones. Price is just silly cheap for this quality. Well done again Behringer – great kit and great price.

I read the reviews and many people complained about static, hiss, poor amplification, etc. However, I have not had that experience.
I plugged it into my headphone out from my DAW interface so that several of us could listen to the headphoine mix during recording, and the range of volume was extreme, from very quiet to way too loud, and the sound quality was clear, even when turned up. There was no noticable hiss or degradation.
I didn’t do a spectral analysis or anything, but it sounded just great. I havent had it long nor used it much, but I will revisit this review if it ever fails.
