Key Features
The T+A Solitaire P Planar Magnetic Headphones V1 with Headphone Amplifier is the ultimate headphone package that offers immersive listening with exhilarating sound quality. The T+A Solitaire HA-200 Headphone Amplifier has all the features you need to advance the sound of your headphones and create an immersive listening experience. The Class-A amplifier design transmits a large voltage output through your headphones so you can get the most powerful sound possible. The T+A True 1-Bit DAC can generate excellent analogue sounds from digital files in DSD 1024 resolution, with the T+A quadruple converter offering 32 Bit / 768 kHz in PCM.
Connect all your digital devices to the T+A Solitaire HA-200 thanks to multiple analogue inputs, two Coaxial inputs, two USB inputs and two Optical inputs. The Bluetooth antenna allows you to wirelessly pair your smart devices with the Solitaire HA-200. On the front panel, you can manually control the inputs and volume. The VU scales inform you of the audio signal levels, with the screen display keeping you updated on the amplifier's operations. The T+A Solitaire can also be controlled straight from your sofa using the provided remote control.
The T+A Solitaire P Planar Magnetic Headphones (V1) offer an intimate listening experience, perfect for listening to your tunes whilst on your morning commute. The Solitaire P is harnessed with 19 high-performing neodymium magnets to give the TPM 3100 transducer a huge boost. Enjoy crisp sounds thanks to the T+A draft control system which prevents air turbulence and elevates the sound quality. The planar-magnetic design offers aspects of both dynamic and electrostatic headphones and provides an excellent bass response with an extension to low-end frequencies. The open-back construction allows the transducer to vibrate uninterrupted, creating a brilliant sound. The Solitaire P headphone cables consist of ultra-pure copper (OFC) conductors which ensure the highest audio quality. The Solitaire P offers comfy ear pads to ensure maximum comfort.

"This is - by some margin - the best headphone I’ve ever tested and it has a depth of talent that is almost unprecedented in terms of how it balances its talents and capabilities."
What has truly set the Solitaire P aside from almost any other headphone I’ve ever tested is how little it asks of you in return. If your pockets are deep enough, this is as good as headphone listening gets and for this reason, the Solitaire P is the Best in Class.
The T+A combination isn’t the Rolls Royce of personal audio; it’s the Maybach of headphone listening enjoyment. It’s every bit as refined and a lot less ‘bling’ than the latest Rollers and much more in line with the outrageously well-made Mercedes for those whom the S-Class is not enough.
The TPM 3100 transducer is the beating heart of the Solitaire P. The 19 high-performing neodymium magnets drive the sound to greatness and keep your ears glued to your music. Limit the air turbulence thanks to the T+A draft control system so you can immerse yourself in clean sounds with little to no distortion. The custom-made annular mounts and magnet support also keep the transducer in the linear part of the magnetic driver field to enable a consistent sound.
The Solitaire P headphones offer a planar-magnetic design, which not only reduces distortion but also offers a wide frequency response of 5 Hz - 54 kHz and a maximum impedance of 80 ohms. The open-back design allows for better sound quality than your average closed-back headphones and allows the diaphragm to vibrate with no interruption.
The Solitaire P headphones offer extremely cosy ear pads, with the open-back design your ears can also enjoy nice fresh air circulation to increase comfort. The open-end design allows for reduced excess material which ensures easy transportability. Connect to your smartphone using a stereo jack plug and enjoy a direct sound that will elevate your music.
T+A's first headphone amplifier is a new and ground-breaking development in which the analogue amplifier section, the converter section and also the case mechanics operate to perfection. The analogue section of the HA 200 is based on the unique T+A HV technology. Its high-performance output stages operate in Class-A mode with a high idle current and are effortlessly capable of driving even the most difficult of headphones.
The impedance of the three headphone outputs can even be matched to the headphones and delivers extremely high currents. The digital section is fitted with the proprietary T+A True 1-Bit DAC, which provides an incredible DSD 1024 for Bitstream, and the T+A quadruple converter with 32 Bit/768 kHz for PCM. You can also manage the amplifier right from your fingertips using the supplied remote control.
The design and materials of the case harmonise perfectly with the unique electronics. All the case components are produced from non-magnetic aluminium, and the front panel is machined from solid plate material – just like the HV series. Accurate QPPM metering instruments and a front panel screen keep you up to date on the HA-200's performance.
The T+A Solitaire HA-200 headphone amplifier is equipped with multiple Coaxial, Optical, BNC, and AES/EBU inputs to enable connectivity to your digital devices. Take the sound of your headphones to another level with the multiple analogue inputs as well as Bluetooth for easy wireless pairing. The USB and HDMI inputs also mean you can connect to your PC and Blu-Ray player.
On the front panel, you can manually activate the inputs with the operating buttons, with the rotational dial taking care of volume control. The Solitaire HA-200 has two VU meters to display the signal level so you can find a sound that suits you. On the front panel, you can also check the data stream frequency, and the D/A converter level, and utilise the XLR 4-pin output, the 6.3mm barrel socket, and 4.4mm Pentaconn sockets with channel-separate signal transfer.
