Rogue Audio - SPHINX V3 Magnum Integrated Amplifier with Metal Remote

Introducing the Sphinx v3 Magnum, raising the bar once again! For more than 10 years the Rogue Audio Sphinx has represented the pinnacle of affordable high-end audio.

The Magnum package includes upgrades to the power supply section, coupling caps, phono stage, binding posts as well as the tube circuit. The final icing on the cake includes a topping off with JJ gold pin signal tubes and a metal remote.

Sphinx v3 Magnum Upgrade:
-Power supply upgrades
-Upgraded coupling caps
-Upgrades to the phono stage
-Upgraded caps and resistors in key spots
-Upgraded binding posts
-JJ Gold Pin 12AU7s
-Metal remote 

The already awesome Sphinx is receiving significant upgrades that make it even more exciting than ever. A completely redesigned phono section now accommodates both low and high output MM and MC cartridges. User adjustable cartridge loading with 44dB/60dB of gain ensures you will achieve the very best results from your favorite phono cartridge. The headphone amplifier has also been completely re-engineered around MOSFET devices for greater power and improved performance. Now even those notoriously difficult to drive headphones are a piece of cake for the Sphinx V3. The highly regarded line stage has also been updated for even better sound with your preferred line level sources. Finally, the variable outputs are now driven off of the tube circuitry for better sound quality from your ancillary gear. The Sphinx V3 will begin shipping in mid November so be sure to visit your Rogue Audio retailer to hear the new Sphinx yourself.
