Congratulations with your purchase of the
Sphinx Project Two Mk2!
You are now a member of an ever increasing group
of quality conscious audiophiles using Sphinx
products.
We are very proud of the tradition connected with
SPHINX name especially concerning audio quality
perfection.
This manual will help you to gain a maximum
amount of pleasure and quality from your new
Sphinx Project Two Mk2 Pre-Amp.
This pre-amp uses the newest technologies and
refined designs and is extremely simple to operate.
Designs that succesfully have been used in the
award winning Project Eight.
Such as the ultra-linear extremely low-noise Class
A audio circuits, built from the finest hand-selected
parts.
The signal path is completely balanced from input
to output, and left and right are totally separated.
The power supply is of a unique design (fully Class-
A!) and consists of three completely separate and
independant sections: one for the digital control
plus one each for the left and right channel.
Input selection is done by means of precision
relays. The ALPS volumecontrol is motordriven.
All settings and controls can also be done via the
supplied Sphinx
Remote Control
.
To obtain the maximum quality from this power amp
it is necessary to use it with top quality audio
components, preferably with other Sphinx
components.
Your local dealer will be able to answer any
questions concerning other Sphinx audio
components.
