Advance Paris X-P1200 Dual Mono & Dual Power Supply Preamplifier

Features:

Two mono preamplifiers and compartmentalised power supply

Twin toroidal transformers; 4x 1200uF / 150V filter capacitors

9 analogue inputs, including 1x MM/MC phono and 2x XLR

2x Optical, 2x Coaxial and 1x USB Audio digital inputs

Analog Device AD1955 DAC

Balanced (XLR) and unbalanced (RCA) outputs

Not only does your X-P1200 have independent right and left channel preamp circuits, but so do their power supplies. that we have chosen to make them totally independent through the use of two transformers.

The X-P1200 is equipped with 9 analog inputs including 2 inputs Balanced XLR., A USB B input (XMOS), 2 coaxial digital inputs and 2 digital inputs. output side, you will have the choice between a balanced XLR type output or unbalanced RCA type.

Everything has been thought out to make this preamp the benchmark for best audio systems: mains input with choke filtering and capacitors, two toroidal transformers with high current capacity, filtering composed of 4 capacitors 12000uF / 150V.

The regulation is done by integrated circuits mounted on heat sinks. Concerning the switching of the inputs/outputs, it is done by relay without loss of contact. The symmetrisation of the cinch inputs and the de-symmetrisation is done using quality operational amplifiers of the Burr Brown type.

The processing of digital sources is entrusted to an Analog Device AD-1955 converter. This converter is particularly suitable for high end and SACD applications. The quality of the digital / analog decoding is of very high level with a signal to noise ratio of 123 dB and an audio quality at the top. It is comprised of a multi-bit sigmadelta modulator, high-performance digital interpolation filters, and 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 quality audio reproduction.

Without a doubt, the X-P1200 will be associated with the X-A1200 mono unit for an exceptional hifi system.
