AMC XP1000se - High-quality transistor preamplifier for audiophile sound requirements
The AMC amplifier range has always stood for the highest sound quality and innovative technology. With the XP1000se transistor preamplifier, AMC is expanding its portfolio with a powerful and sonically excellent model that fits seamlessly into the existing range. The combination of precise tone control, flexible connection options and an audiophile design makes the XP1000se the ideal choice for discerning music lovers.
Design and workmanship - Elegant aesthetics with sophisticated controls
Visually, the AMC XP1000se has a classic, timeless design with a robust, black anodized aluminium front. The compact design with dimensions of 43 x 28.8 x 8.2 cm ensures easy integration into existing hi-fi systems, while the weight of 4.6 kg speaks for stable stability and solid workmanship.
Extensive tone control and balance adjustment
Thanks to the integrated tone control, bass and treble frequencies can be individually adjusted:
- Bass control at 100 Hz: ±10 dB
- Treble control at 10 kHz: -8 / +11 dB
A particular strength of the XP1000se is the balance control, which enables optimum adjustment of the stereo center. Especially in rooms where a central listening position is not possible, this function allows flexible adjustment of the sound image for a balanced listening experience.
Versatile connection options for analog and digital sources
The XP1000se offers an outstanding variety of connections for analog and digital sources:
Analog inputs:
- 3x line inputs for CD players, tuners or other analog players
- High-quality MM/MC phono stage with 3 OP amps for excellent vinyl sound
- MM/MC switch on the back of the device
- Input sensitivity MM: 0.5 - 2.7 mV / MC: 0.05 - 0.27 mV
Digital interfaces:
- 1x optical digital input (Toslink) for connection to digital sources
- High-quality 24-bit / 192 kHz Hi-Res D/A conversion for detailed, high-resolution sound reproduction
Outputs for maximum flexibility:
- 2x pre-out for driving power amplifiers or active loudspeakers
- Headphone output (32 - 600 Ohm) for direct connection of high-quality headphones
High-quality, gold-plated input and output sockets guarantee long-term loss-free signal transmission.
Audiophile sound concept - tube character without tubes
The special circuit topology of the XP1000se ensures a natural, warm sound with a hint of tube character - without actually using tubes. The fine balance between transistor technology and low-feedback circuitry (26 / 29 dB) gives the preamplifier a particularly harmonious and dynamic music reproduction.
With an impressive frequency response of 10 Hz - 60 kHz (-3 dB), the XP1000se delivers a detailed, precise reproduction across the entire audible spectrum.
Precise volume control and intuitive operationVolumecontrol is via a mechanical potentiometer with motor, which ensures precise adjustment and can also be controlled by remote control. The intuitive operation and the high-quality rotary potentiometer guarantee a pleasant feel and fine tuning of the volume.
