Beschrijving
The new KX-R elevates the art of preamplification to a higher plane. Building on Ayre’s 
zero-feedback, fully-balanced foundation, the new KX-R elevates the art of preamplification to a higher plane. The KX-R transcends all other designs with its radical new concepts.
The revolutionary Variable Gain Transimpedance (VGT) amplification circuit eliminates the conventional attenuator-based volume control completely. This simplified signal path delivers the music directly for a full and complete experience. Destined to become an instant classic, the Ayre KX-R is the reference for the next decade.
“In my life, three much-hyped experiences have actually lived up to all the hoopla: trekking into Machu Picchu on a misty morning, climbing the Great Wall of China on a brisk December afternoon, and auditioning the Ayre KX-R. If it’s not the eighth wonder of the modern world, I say demand a recount.”
