Phono Signature with HALF PRICE PSX-R2 power supply

The Cyrus Phono Signature with PSX-R2 power supply is a high quality phono preamplifier with a separate dC power supply that will upgrade the sonic performance of the Cyrus phone signature for vinyl turntables. A phono stage is one of the most critically sensitive products in hi-fi. Because the signals produced by the needle are so small, they need to be amplified many thousands of times. All Cyrus components are manufactured in a die cast aluminium chassis, this hand finished case work is a integral part of the products sound, the chassis composition is specifically designed to create a electrically shielded and mechanically vibration free environment for the sensitive audio circuits which are hung inside the inverted chassis.

The Phono Signature has been designed to allow up to four turntables to be permanently connected because many vinyl enthusiasts enjoy multiple turntables, arms or cartridges for different records. It is also possible to calibrate each input separately from the comfort of your armchair using the included ir Remote control.

Each of the four inputs can be accurately matched to the exact specification of the cartridge and the acoustic preference of the user. Adjustment is provided for MC cartridges in; gain, resistance and capacitance. In addition, a switchable warp filter is provided to maximise amplifier performance.

The PSX-R₂ is a unique dC power supply that will upgrade the sonic performance of the Cyrus phone signature and other components in the Cyrus range

Cyrus PSX-R₂ Performance power supply

How it works

When a PSX-R₂is connected to a Cyrus product, the power feeds to the internal circuitry are split two ways with the clean, stable power source of the PSX-R₂feeding sensitive circuit sections while other requirements are supplied internally. This ensures complete isolation of control circuits and sensitive analogue sections, reducing AC mains-borne noise and power supply ripple.

Features

Switchable inputs for 4 x turntables.
Each input configurable to match either moving coil or moving magnet cartridges.
Front panel adjustment of gain, resistance and capacitance loading for each input configured for moving coil use.
Choice of balanced or unbalanced audio outputs.
Warp filter to reduce bass unit excursion on warped records.
Interactive display with peak hold bargraph to assist in setting moving coil gain.
Remote control of all features from the Cyrus iR14.
MC-BUS connection for system integration with other Cyrus components.
PSX-R₂upgrade port for the optional Cyrus PSX-R₂external power supply

World famous Doug Brady Hi-Fi was born in Liverpool in the late 1950’s at the same time as turntables, vinyl and The Beatles. This cultural revolution with Liverpool at the centre, heralded the very first ‘Brady’ shop W.A.Brady & Son in the city's Smithdown Road.

Opened in 1960 W.A.Brady & Son was the start of something amazing and as word got around, turntable sales rocketed. Success soon followed with a flag ship store launched in Covent Garden London.

Doug Brady had a passion for all things music and was instrumental in establishing some of the UK’s finest ‘High Fidelity’ audio electronic and turntable brands such as Naim, Rega and Chord Electronics.

In the early 1980’s the business moved to a more central location half way between Manchester and Liverpool at Kingsway North, Warrington, Cheshire and that’s where we are based to this day.

Our core principle is to provide each individual customer with the very best sound and vision experience in their home regardless of whether their budget is £1,000 or £100,000 though an informed and unbiased opinion.
