The 850P is the most advanced Moon preamplifier to date. Extensive research and development, along with recent advances in electronic parts have provided us with the basis to design what may very well be the most transparent, quiet and precise preamplifier. Aimed at the most demanding audiophile who wants uncompromising musical reproduction
Characteristics:
- Dual chassis design with one chassis housing for the power supply, digital control circuits, software and another for audio circuitry.
- Preamp audio section located on its own dedicated circuit board, mounted on the chassis under our M-Octave Damping system.
- Large dual mono power supply with 2 toroidal transformers in conjunction with 6 stages of DC voltage regulation.
- M-Ray volume control system based on the R-2R resistor matrix configuration that uses metal film surfaces, with resistors with tolerances of 0.1%, resulting in zero sonic degradation of the signal regardless of the selected volume.
- Power Supply Voltage Regulation i2DCF (Independent Inductive DC Filtering): This is a dedicated inductor in each of the components integrated in the circuit (DAC, Op-Amp, etc.) during the signal path of the circuit with a total of 40 stages.
- Fully differential structure, with no global feedback circuit topology, using absolutely no capacitors anywhere in the audio signal path.
- "User-selectable" M-Lock volume lock adjustment and ±10 dB gain selection for each line input.
- RS-232 port for two-way feedback and firmware updates.
- Infrared ray sensor input for external control.
- FRM-3 remote control (included).
- 12 volt output for remote operation.
- Simlink™ controller port for 2-way communications with other compatible Moon components.
- 4-layer printed circuit boards with pure copper traces for a much shorter signal path (sound accuracy, better S/N ratio).
- Ultra rigid chassis capable of minimizing the effects of external vibrations.
- Dimensions: 476 x 104 x 427 mm (preamplification) 476 x 104 x 439 mm (control and power supply).
- Weight: 67kg.
