Pass Labs XP-27 Two-Chassis Phonostage

The twin chassis XP-27 eclipses the already exceptional performance of the well-reviewed and well-received XP-15, XP-25 & XP-17: delivering enhanced RIAA performance at a fraction of the previous distortion.  The new design uses double shielded low noise toroidal transformers in external supply connected via aviation-grade circular connectors using silver over oxygen-free copper. The power supply is dual mono with two transformers with lower radiated and mechanical noise. Noise is the most prominent part of THD+N at low levels, so by lowering noise we get better resolution and dynamics. The XP-27 input and gain circuitry are similar to that found in the Xs Phono. This means switching and loading are done at higher signal levels, minimizing noise and improving low-level performance.    SpecificationsGain options - 56, 66, 76dBInputs - 2RIAA response - plus/minus.1dB 20-20 KHzPower consumption - 50 wattsNumber of chassis - 2Dimensions, Each Chassis - 17"W x 12"D x 4"HWeight (LBS) - 4
