The Xs Phono is an all-out assault on the state of the art in Vinyl, perhaps the most intensive and difficult design effort we have made. Paradoxically from the company priding itself on simplicity, it appears to be very complex, having circuits which contain a total of about 1,500 components. However, this massiveness is used to extract the utmost performance from a simple topology operating with the extremely small and delicate signals coming from the wide variety of phono cartridges. The Xs Phono is a true "dual-mono" design, the only component shared between channels other than casework, being the AC power connection to house power. Once past the power cord the AC mains feed left and right channel power supplies, each totally independent from one another with their own dedicated transformer, filtering and regulation. The control section has its own regulated power supply as well. Building upon the dual mono theme and topology each of the three inputs feature left and right gain channels, each on a separate, ceramic substrate circuit boards (6 circuit boards). This total independence starting at the power cord and continuing right through to the output connectors guarantees minimal noise and negligible channel to channel "cross-talk". The result is listening to music emerging from a quieter background and blooming into a richer, more precise soundstage.
