The XP is one of Cyrus's highest performing integrated amplifiers. The d is because it has a DAC and the Qx is because it has had a DAC upgrade. What a difference this makes to the sound! I use an optical connection into one of its 11 inputs to connect a mac mini. The sound is fantastic! This amp is just sublime in resolving detail in a wide range of music; from the Foo Fighters through Pink Floyd to a spot of Vivaldi, this amp makes the very best of whatever you can throw at it. It has a variety of analogue and digital connections that can allow a wide degree of expansion. Whilst not overly powerful, it will do an excellent job on it's own. I've been using a CD transport with this and the Qx DAC in this is so good. It outperforms the likes of the current CDi (who's DAC is not as good as this is according to Cyrus themselves.) If you are thinking about purchasing one of these, the only thing you need to think about really is your upgrade path. If (like me) you are looking for a power amp to join it and you want something special to crunch the numbers from other sources, this is the one for you. I now have an X Power connected and the result is sublime. This amp makes it all happen!Vollständige Rezension lesen

Most importantly, the sound quality is fabulous. It's far better than my existing amplifier, which is a top-range model from a well-respected supplier and cost about the same five years ago. The Cyrus delivers very clean and clear sound, very accurate stereo image, plenty of treble without becoming tiring and plenty of bass without being boomy. It's a real pleasure to sit down and listen to it. Other virtues : 2) It has 6 analogue and 5 digital inputs. This allows me to connect my existing hi-fi and the TV, disc player, media streamer and computer without having to buy a DAC, which saves lots of money and makes connecting everything together much more simple and convenient. 3) It is small physically. It sits alongside a small new streaming PC and together they occupy the same space as my old amplifier. This avoids serious space problems in the hi-fi cabinet. 4) Cyrus will support the amplifier for ever. 5) You can upgrade the amplifier to the same spec as Cyrus' top model for roughly the price difference between the two machines. With that mid-life upgrade available, I'm sorted for the next ten years or so. In order to show I'm not a fanboy, I need to state a dislike. Erm, you can't switch it on with the remote control, you have to use the button on the front panel. Before I bought the Cyrus, I listened to four other amplifiers in its price bracket, the two top recommendations from a hi-fi magazine and two devices recommended by my dealer. The differences between the amps were generally small and I'd have been happy to buy four of the five, but the convenience and cost-saving afforded by the digital inputs made the Cyrus a very clear winner.Vollständige Rezension lesen
Fantastic detail but needs to be paired with a power amp and bi-amped to get a bigger soundstage. X-power is brilliant with it.
