Kinki Studio EX-P7 - preamplifier (silver)

Kinki Studio EX-P7 - preamplifier (silver)

The EX Series is tuned to reproduce sound quality with balance mid and smooth extension in both ends, high and low extension. True Class-A biased, fully discrete input and output stages are the heart of the EX-P7. Rich in tonal quality, details, and high resolution. Silky smooth volume control thanks to the discrete R2R volume control, of which known for its precise and accurate volume adjustment with precision matched resistors.

Features:

• Volume control based on R2R resistor ladder with 256 steps increment
• Fully analogue circuit, based on the shortest signal routes possible and with gain stage biased in Class A
• Essential dual mono design in the same chassis
• Two transformers from the British company AMPLIMO
• Neutrik XLR sockets
• Extremely high cost 0.2µm gold-plated printed circuit board (PCB)
  
• Chassis made of 8-10mm thick of anodized aluminum block, effectively eliminate the nasty EMI/EMC induced
• Gold-plated connectors for input stage signal and transformer primary stage.
• Aluminum remote control
  
• LED display with dimmable option

Sound characteristic:

Neutrality and musicality were the goals to achieve. Rich tonal quality, vivid sound imaging, details, high resolution and dynamic. The choice of the components, design, and tuning does just that.
