Headliner R2 Mark2

The Headliner R2 Mark2 is a two-channel analog rotary DJ mixer designed for tactile mixing and hands-on control. It combines per-channel 3-band isolator EQ, a selectable analog high-pass/low-pass filter and flexible connectivity for turntables, media players, drum machines and other audio sources.

Each channel features a large rotary volume control, gain adjustment with Peak LED, headphone cue selection and filter activation. The analog filter has dedicated Frequency and Resonance controls, with refined circuitry for smooth operation. Genuine ALPS potentiometers provide precise rotary control.

Each channel offers a dedicated stereo RCA line input and a second stereo RCA input switchable between phono and line. The mixer can accommodate up to four stereo line-level sources. A front-panel microphone input with level control is also provided.

Independent Master and Booth sections feature dedicated level controls, balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA outputs. A separate RCA Record output allows recording without changing the main output level. The monitoring section includes Cue/Master blending, split monitoring, a high-current headphone amplifier and both 6.3 mm and 3.5 mm headphone connections.

The R2 Mark2 has a sturdy metal chassis with dark wood side panels featuring a pronounced grain and precision-etched branding. It is supplied with an external split-rail power supply connected via a locking Mini XLR connector.
