Respect for your sources

The new X-P1200 preamplifier is the showcase of our know-how. Reference stereo preamplifier, it is in fact composed of two mono preamplifiers assembled in a single compartmentalized box to ensure complete isolation of the various circuits and preamplification stages.

This design ensures better channel separation (crosstalk) and therefore a better stereo effect.

Not only does your X-P1200 have independent preamplification circuits for the right channel and the left channel, but it is also at the level of their power supplies  that we have chosen to make them completely independent  thanks to the use of two transformers.

The X-P1200 is equipped with 9 analog inputs including 2  balanced XLR inputs., A USB B input (XMOS), 2 coaxial digital inputs and 2 digital inputs. On the output side,  you will have the choice between a balanced XLR  or unbalanced RCA type output.  Everything has been thought out to make this preamp the benchmark for the  best audio systems: mains input with filtering by chokes  and capacitors, two toroidal transformers with high  current capacity, filtering made up of 4 12000uF / 150V capacitors.

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 symmetrization of the cinch inputs and the desymmetrization 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 multibit 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.
