The MPP202 preamplifier is the first separate element of the “Black Line”. As such, it incorporates all the newest elements and ideas in High Fidelity. The MPP 202 represents a true technological achievement with nothing left to chance. All of its “sound friendly” components guarantee a delicate and subtle rendering of your favorite music. The “Boost EQ” function is specifically aimed at smaller acoustic speakers and their inherent weakness with bass. This function improves the recovery of the low frequencies while reducing the distortion that is inherent to this part of the audio spectrum. The plugs enable connections to many different sources. There is even a specific 3.5 mm stereo jack analog input with higher sensitivity than a conventional RCA input, allowing one to connect a laptop headphone set, MP3 player or even an iPod. The universal remote which comes with the MPP 202 will make using it, a breeze. < Back to top |

The MAA 402 Power Amplifier has been conceived and realized with a lot of care and forethought. The use of an oversized toroidal transformer along with the associated “High Current” Bipolar power transistors allow the MAA 402 to provide an exceptional musical experience. This type of infrastructure gives the output a natural softness which faithfully renders music in its finest details. The use of low noise resistors and sound friendly capacitors provide a counterpoint and guarantees the highest fidelity to sound. The MAA 402 Amplifier delivers a significant 70 watts of power per channel in Class AB** mode. The first 15 watts of power are Class A* mode and the switch from Class A mode to Class AB mode is accomplished automatically by the device. < Back to top |

The only thing demanded of a stereo pre-amplifier is that it should enable selection of the source and the volume. The MPP-206 takes its responsibilities in this direction seriously, thanks to it’s high calibre hybrid construction with carefully selected components. No effort has been spared to ensure that the MPP-206 conveys your favourite music with unrestrained vigour. Likewise, in terms of operating convenience, the best is simply not good enough, so the MPP-206 comes with a plethora of add-ons, including a variable phono-module, a built in active crossover and attractive metal remote control.

Reliable and robust, the ‘Q’ has been a stalwart of the 8000 series. Good pre-amplifiers are few and far between in the audiophile world. To be considered such an audiophile pre-amplifier, the 8000Q must provide all of the functionality and control required without imparting any character of its own to the delicate audio signals. It’s this neutrality that is so hard to achieve, and it is this neutrality that is the secret of the 8000Qs enduring appeal. The 8000Q is a simple, but high quality, remote control pre- amplifier with a wide range of inputs and outputs. All signals are switched with audiophile signal relays and the volume control is a motorised potentiometer. The low impedance line amplifier is a miniature class A power amplifier with current mirror bias - ideal for use with long interconnects to multiple power amplifiers. "The 8000Q must provide all of the functionality and control required without imparting any character of its own." "Style and stacks of power, the 8000 series is an essential addition to any home with a passion for quality audio" < Back to top |

Using two monobloc amplifiers, rather than a two-channel stereo power amplifier can significantly improve the performance of any hi-fi system. Although the 8000M offers greater power output than an 8000P, it is gain matched, so should you upgrade your system in the future, you can happily use the two in combination. The 8000M provides a genuine 125W power into an 8Ohm loudspeaker load, and features twin output terminals for bi-wiring. It has parallel phono connectors making it easy to connect several pairs of 8000Ms to any pre-amplifier. This allows you to daisy-chain units to further improve headroom in bi-amped and even tri-amped systems. Simple styling belies the power and speed of response available from this compact amplifier. < Back to top |

Cambridge Audio has taken the Azur 840 series to its peak with the introduction of two new models – the 840E pre-amplifier and 840W power amplifier. The 840W is a high-end power amplifier that has been designed by the same team behind the 840A and uses an evolution of Cambridge Audio’s hugely innovative Class XD™ technology for a highly detailed naturally musical performance. The second generation Class XD is now complemented by a new output stage carefully adjusted to integrate with this novel technology, revised balanced inputs for lower distortion and noise. An awesome 200W @ 8 Ohms gives excellent load driving ability or, a truly massive 500W bridged mono can be harnessed for even ‘difficult’ high-end speakers. |
