Is this the little headphone amp you want for a tidy desktop setup, and are you happy paying £27 for it? Against your market anchor, that’s a strong deal: it sits just above the £26 25th percentile and well below the £76 median, so this is priced like a bargain rather than a merely fair buy.
For a cheap multi-output headphone amp, the appeal is straightforward: it’s a practical way to split one source to several listeners, and these little Behringer boxes have long been valued for doing a simple job without fuss. If it’s working cleanly and the power supply is included, this is the sort of low-risk pickup that makes sense at £27; the only real thing to check is basic functionality on all channels and the condition of the sockets and knobs.

Behringer traces its roots to January 25, 1989, when Uli Behringer founded the company in Willich, Germany. A self-taught electronics enthusiast who built his first synthesizer at age 16, Uli drew inspiration from his father's church organ projects and his own struggles as a pianist and sound engineer. Unable to afford professional studio gear, he began crafting affordable alternatives for himself and friends, rapidly scaling from a home workshop into a full production facility. This DIY heritage underscores Behringer's mission to democratize high-quality audio tools.
The brand excels in a vast array of pro-audio and hi-fi categories, including mixers, compressors, amplifiers, powered speakers, DJ controllers, synthesizers, and signal processors. Early hits like the 1990 MDX8000 Combinator and 1996 EURODESK MX8000 mixer paved the way for expansions into guitar pedals, studio monitors, and boutique recreations of vintage synths. Manufacturing shifted to China in the 1990s, enabling massive scale while maintaining patented innovations.
Behringer occupies the entry-to-mid-tier market, renowned for its "double the features, half the price" ethos that delivers solid performance to hobbyists, live sound pros, and budget-conscious studios. While praised for value and reliability in live and project-studio settings, it faces criticism for build quality shortcuts compared to high-end marques, positioning it as a pragmatic choice for discerning buyers prioritizing accessibility over audiophile prestige.
