Cyrus 8VS-PSX-R amplifier

12 avril 2005


Cambridge (UK) Cyrus 8VS/PSX-R amplifier is priced at £1200. it stands in two boxes, one (the 8VS, priced £800) being fully equipped with its own power supply while the other box is an optional £400 external power. Actually, the optional box does not replace the original power source, simply supplements it.

Line outputs 5 line + 2 tape, pre- and tape out, headphone, two sets of speakers, plus the PSX-R socket. Minimalist volume:balance control, that’s about it. Yet, this device is highly recommendable with all major brands in the AV:or Stereo chain, because it is a neatly conceived, well balanced and not so expensive product.
