Up for grabs some excellent gear that unfortunately is surplus to requirement. Like all PJB gear the Bighead and H850 Headphones deliver nothing but the best tone tailored for bass. Best practice setup you can buy and a pretty mean recording interface too.

Comes with all cables and plugs and is in lightly used condition. I upgraded the original PJB Bighead sleeve (which was a rag) to something more protective. Manual included, the original packaging I cannot find but I will package it very well. Shipping included.

Specs:
The PJB BigHead is not big at all. In fact it is barely larger than an iPhone. The "Big" is about the sound. It functions first as an awesome bass headphone amplifier with 2 band EQ ( +/- 18db @ 60 Hz and +/- 18dB @ 5KHz) set for optimization of all kinds of bass instruments.
Unlike consumer electronic MP3 players and smart phones that have very small power output of around 20 milli-watt to drive headphones, the BigHead has more than 10 times the power. This contributes to a far more exhilarating listening experience with increased resolution and dynamics. Even if you are just listening to music, the BigHead will be a great improvement to your regular headphones, adding more listening pleasure.
A more important function of the BigHead is being a recording tool both in digital and analog. As an Analog Digital Converter, it has the finest BURR BROWN digital components. The USB out is 48KHz 16Bit digital conversion. In other words, recording your bass onto Pro Tools will give you exactly what you wish for and absolutely nothing else.
Maybe you need an analog pre amp. The Big Head can do that too. It will provide up to 12dB of gain and better than 96dB signal to noise ratio. Just use the headphone out jack to feed an amp or mixer. It has an internal lithium-ion rechargeable battery that is fed by its USB jack, so any computer or appropriate cell phone charger can charge it in less than 3 hours, but it can play for up to 8 hours.

Not all headphones are suitable for bass instruments. Many may sound good for casual listening, but plug them into the headphone jack of a bass amp and you will soon find their limitations.
PJB H-850 headphones are the first pair designed specifically to bridge the gap between high-quality music and deep and clear bass.
They are a result of years of auditioning and analyzing the mechanisms of what works best for the reproduction of music and bass.
Utilizing high power 40mm neodymium magnets and closed back acoustic loading, we were able to achieve superb sound reproduction for both music and bass instruments.
The H-850 are ergonomically designed with shape and materials to be lightweight so they can be worn comfortably for hours.
They also have excellent acoustic isolation from external noise and headphone bleed through for recording application. After you try the H-850 you will soon realize these will be your favorite tools.
