The Integris CDP was designed from the beginning to be a modular, upgradeable and expandable platform. Two of
the earliest foreseen options are now available!
The Phono Input Section allows vinyl enthusiasts to add top-notch LP playback to their systems without the
hassle and cost of an external phono stage and extra power cords and interconnects. Our Phono board installs
neatly within the Integris CDP and there are numerous gain and loading options – all easily accessible on the rear
panel – providing flexibility to work with a wide range of cartridges. The design is particularly optimized for
superior low-output moving coil cartridges and uses high-quality step-up transformers to quietly add gain and
deliver maximum fidelity. See our webpage describing the Phono Board option in more detail.
The Headphone Amplifier permits an Integris CDP to be a total state-of-the-art one-piece electronics solution
for the enthusiast of private listening! Again, with the elimination of a power cord and interconnects, as would
be required for an external headphone amp, the value and performance of this option is phenomenal. The excellent
resolution, low noise, and current capability of this amplifier makes it capable of successfully driving virtually
any headphone having as low as 16ohms impedance. See our webpage describing the Headphone Amplifier in more
detail.
Both options may be installed simultaneously or separately on our accessory rear panel.
Pricing of these options are (msrp USD/CDN):
- Phono Input Board - $2500
- Headphone Amplifier - $1000 by itself or $800 when purchased with a Phono Input Board.
Existing Integris CDP owners may contact Aurum Acoustics for advice and estimates on retrofitting their units
to include these options to the exact same high performance level. Likewise they can also avail of the
latest analog circuit upgrades described here.
