You are looking at a pre-owned Moon P-8 RS Reference Dual-Mono Preamplifier.
The P-8 RS and its P-8 RS Controller are in lovely condition. On close inspection you undoubtedly will spot an imperfection, but nothing of any significance (especially at the price).
Ships in original boxes with remote control, interconnects and Moon Bridges (set of 4).
Retail price was £ 13,500

Key Features
- 2-chassis design with the larger chassis (Controller) housing the power supply, digital controller circuitry, software
processing and the LED display. The smaller chassis (Preamplifier) contains ONLY audio circuitry.
- Full unsolicited RS-232 bidirectional feedback
- Custom proprietary toroidal transformer design with lower magnetic, electrical and thermal loss, yielding an improved
power transfer and lower regulation factor. The result is increased current speed and better dynamics
- An oversized dual-mono power supply features 6 stages of DC voltage regulation and choke filtering
- SimLink controller port allows for 2-way communications between other compatible MOON Evolution Series components
- M-Ray volume control circuit based on the R-2R resistor array configuration that uses metal film surface mount resistors
with 0.1% tolerances, resulting in no sonic degradation of the audio signal regardless of the selected volume setting
- M-Lock circuit for “user selectable” maximum volume setting lock-out for each line input
- Power supply voltage regulation includes i2 DCf (Independent Inductive DC Filtering); 1 inductor for each and every IC in the audio circuit’s signal path – 40 stages in all
- Gain offset for each individual line input with a ±10dB range
- Each line input is fully configurable to be “home theater ready”, where the volume control of the P-8 is bypassed
- 530 individual volume steps in 1dB and 0.1dB increments
- Four-layer PCB tracings; The advantages include better ground and power supply circuit layouts resulting in a much
shorter signal path and dramatically improved signal-to-noise ratio
- Extremely rigid chassis construction to minimize the effects of external vibrations
- Accurate matching of the very finest quality electronic components in a symmetrical circuit design
- Improved reliability through the elimination of moving parts.
