Cyrus 80 PRE Full-Width Streaming Preamplifier

The Cyrus 80 PRE is the control centre of the new Cyrus 80 Series the company's first full-width separates in over 40 years. It packs the same feature set as the 80 AMP without the power amplifier: BluOS streaming, a customised ESS Sabre ES9039Q2M DAC, MM/MC phono, HDMI eARC, USB-B, balanced XLR in and out, and a dedicated headphone amplifier with both single-ended and balanced XLR outputs. Designed to partner the 80 PWR, it will also drive any quality power amplifier via its balanced or RCA pre-outs, making it an easy upgrade path for existing separates systems. Full-colour display, Roon Ready and AirPlay 2 built in.
