Congratulations on your purchase of the CARVIN 

H400

Four

Channel Headphone Amp. Your unit has been engineered and
made in the U.S.A. using only high quality electronic components
and uncompromising workmanship.

The 

H400

will drive a total of eight pairs of headphones to their

maximum output with excellent clarity.  The 

H400

features four

independent output channels each with it’s own mix of 3 stereo
sources: INPUT A, INPUT B and the AUX IN for that channel.  

When using the unit in MONO, a total of 4 main inputs plus 2 aux

inputs for each channel are available. The signal routing flexibility
of the 

H400 

makes it useful as a distribution amp for installation

applications.

Use caution with the 

H400

. It is capable of high levels which may

cause hearing damage.
