HA-L7A BEHIND THE SCENES
MESSAGE FROM THE ENGINEERS
—THE INSPIRATION FOR HA-L7A
The HA-L7A is the first high-end headphone amplifier that optimizes the amplifier from Yamaha technology we cultivated over many years of researching and developing Hi-Fi components and AV receivers. Our goal was to allow listeners to deeply immerse themselves in a variety of content. We hope you will enjoy your favorite music, movies, sports, and more, with our unique sound experience.

Product Planning/Circuit Design
Currently, there are a wide variety of music listening styles and content, and many users are trying to find the ultimate listening experience for their headphones. We designed the HA-L7A with these customers in mind. When listening on headphones, it is very easy to hear all components of noise, especially those that are not audible when listening through speakers. Therefore, with the HA-L7A, we spent a lot of time on functions and designs, including the circuit design and selection of parts. Because of this, we were able to achieve the quality we were aiming for. I hope you will experience the unique sound world of HA-L7A for yourself, either in combination with our flagship YH-5000SE headphones or with your own headphones.

DSP Design
Headphone enthusiasts value the “original sound” and sometimes have the impression that the “sound will be worse” when you deviate from it. Therefore, with the HA-L7A, we tried to adjust the SOUND FIELD mode to be close to what headphone enthusiasts want, while being aware of the “original sound” heard in Pure Direct mode. Please take a moment to listen to your content enhanced by the SOUND FIELD mode. I think you will feel the localization and movement of the sound intended by artist or producer that cannot be experienced with headphones alone.
