The new X-P1200 preamplifier is composed of two mono preamplifiers assembled in a single compartmentalized chassis to guarantee complete isolation of the different circuits and preamplification stages. This design guarantees better channel separation (crosstalk) and therefore a better stereo effect.
We have also chosen to make their power supplies completely independent using two transformers. Everything is designed so that this preamplifier is the reference for the best audio systems. Mains input with filtering by inductors and capacitors, two high current and current capacity toroidal transformers, filtering with 4 12000uF / 150V capacitors. Regulation is carried out using integrated circuits mounted on heat sinks.
The X-P1200 is equipped with 9 analog inputs, including 2 balanced XLR inputs. The switching of inputs and outputs is carried out using relays without loss of contact. Balancing of the cinch inputs and desymmetrization is performed using high-quality Burr Brown type operational amplifiers.
The processing of digital sources is entrusted to an Analog Device AD-1955 converter. This converter is especially suitable for high-end and SACD applications. The quality of the digital/analog decoding is very high, with a signal-to-noise ratio of 123dB. It consists of a multi-bit sigmadelta modulator, high-performance digital interpolation filters and a continuous-time differential current output DAC.
The playback of audio files from a PC or MAC computer is entrusted to XMOS, a reference solution in the field of high-quality audio playback. The X-P1200 will certainly pair with the
Exceptional Hi-Fi.
