Years in the making, the PX-8 Phono Preamplifier is set to bring you both analog, and digital bliss in one box, featuring some of our most ambitious technology to date.
Equipped with two separate analog inputs featuring a balanced and unbalanced connection, and independent gain and load setting changes that are switchable from the front panel with no dip switches or internal jumpers necessary, the PX-8 Phono Preamp will quickly become a favorite among tone arm and cartridge enthusiasts.
A third and optional input, and major first for Ayre Acoustics, is our first circuit design to support the DS Audio brand of Optical Cartridges. This unique technology when paired with our fully balanced, discrete, zero-feedback approach to vinyl playback, will unlock details in your recordings and reduce noise to levels yet experienced in a phono
You can now also convert your vinyl collection to high resolution digital files with the optionally built in analog to digital converter. Whether you want to imprint the sound of your favorite moving magnet, moving coil or photo optical cartridge, the PX-8 will let you have your cake and eat it too, by letting you enjoy the analog signal chain and send the digitally converted file out to your digital recording hardware.
This is surely set to be our most ambitious product release in years; get yours today!
