Zeus is a Moving Coil (MC) – Moving Magnet (MM) hybrid Phono preamplifier. Hybrid because it utilizes ultra low noise op-amp ICs in the input stage and a tube (6DJ8) output stage in cathode follower arrangement.
Equipped with sophisticated power supply which provides four independent DC power supplies. Zeus provides five input resistor selections, four input capacitance selections and four gain selections to match perfectly your phono cartridge. Meliculous to the last detail this phono preamplifier is said to be a world class device. Made in Greece.
Zeus is a hybrid phono preamplifier with 2 turntable inputs (MM & MC).
It uses ultra low noise operational amplifiers at the inputs and a tube buffer output stage.
It features multiple input resistance, input capacitance and gain selections.
Sophisticated power supplies are utilized to deliver the best DC voltage to each stage separately. Zeus provides two output connections, 1 RCA and 1 XLR connected in single ended manner. It can be turned in true balanced upon request.
Zeus is remote controlled.
All electronic components are through hole type soldered by hand.
Alexander Ultima Preamlifier
Why Ultima?
Alexander Ultima uses 8 signal tubes, 4 for the line stage and 4 for the phono stage.
It provides 5 line inputs in addition to the phono input, a tape output and 2 pre outputs. Alexander Ultima also has a thru input. The signal connected to this input appears to the output of the preamplifier when Alexander is OFF.
Gold plated RCA and XLR connectors are implemented for the signal inputs/outputs.
For the volume control the classic blue Alps is used.
An elegant remote control in aluminum case offers you control over all the functions of Alexander Ultima preamplifier. Volume control, input selection and mute.
Carefully selected values and types of the electronic components contribute to the reliable circuits operation and the superior sound quality of the preamplifier. Mundorf Evo silver gold oil signal capacitors and premium quality tubes are used in Alexander Ultima. The meticulous PCB design ensures excellent behavior in SNR, distortion and channel separation.
Inner signal wiring with high quality shielded signal cable. Power wiring uses high quality copper cables of more-than-needed AWG gauge, to achieve low impedance power transfer. All power cables are twisted in pairs to minimize the electromagnetic interference.
The handmade power transformers and choke are thoroughly tested for quality and reliability. The positioning of the transformers is such that minimizes the magnetic interference with the tube circuits. Furthermore the transformers have copper foil shielding.
