CPP-1 MC step-up forforstærker.
ZYX gør meget ud af bevare tidsdomænet fra deres patenterede spole, og har derfor gjort en række tiltag for at opnå dette:
-
Modstandene i forforstærkerens indgang er derfor fremstillet som en spole, der ved en speciel viklingsproces ikke har nogen induktans.
-
Resten af kredsløbet er holdt så tids-korrekt som muligt.
-
Der benyttes batteridrift for at undgå støj fra vekselstrømsnettet.
-
Forforstærkerens kabinet er lavet af umagnetisk materiale for at undgå ”eddy-currents” i et tilsvarende metal kabinet.

Artisan komplet Grammofon forforstærker med MC indgang
Artisan er en udbygget version af ZYX CPP-1 step-up for-forstærkeren, hvor der er indbygget RIAA korrektionskredsløb - med andre ord en komplet grammofon for-forstærker, der kan tage MC pick-upper (high & low-output) samt MM pick-upper.
ZYX har for at bevare tids-domænet intakt gjort følgende tiltag:
1. Modstandene i forforstærkerens indgang er derfor fremstillet som en spole, der ved en speciel viklingsproces ikke har nogen induktans.
2. RIAA korrektionskredsløb i en CR konfiguration.
3. Der benyttes batteridrift for at undgå støj fra vekselstrømsnettet.
4. Forforstærkerens kabinet er lavet af umagnetisk materiale for at undgå ”eddy-currents” i et tilsvarende metal kabinet.
