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.”
