The 2009 Fubar III uses the highly aclamed NS LM4562 OpAmp in the DAC section and the Burr Brown OPA2604 opamps in the headphone amp module. The OPA2604 is exchangeable allowing you to “roll OpAmps" and customize the sound to your taste.

The specially designed power supply section ensures a minimum of interference for noise free listening.

Compatible with your Favorite Headphones

The Fubar III is optimized for a wide range of headphone impedances. From the Etymotic ER4P (27 ohm) to the AKG K240DF (600 ohm), the high bandwidth, extreme low noise design (lower than -110db) yields greater than 105 dB of dynamic range and exceeds the capabilities of the human ear. This ensures it can handle even the most difficult headphones.

Two gain settings, selectable by a convenient rear panel switch, allow for quick and easy optimization for high or low efficiency headphones.

To satisfy us tweakers, the Fubar III features user changeable headphone opamps and a Shunt/Series type volume control. Other features include Short Circuit and Thermal protection.

Built to Last
As with all Firestone components the Fubar III is manufactured with a solid aluminum chassis and features an anodized aluminum face plate. The volume knob is also machined from solid aluminum for a high quality look and feel.
