Cyrus 6A Integrated Amplifier – Brushed Black

As always with British company Cyrus, we have their traditional “shoebox” casing, this time it houses the highly regarded 6a Integrated Amplifier. Our example is in the Black finish and in good condition noting a few minor cosmetic blemishes. It comes suitably packaged, with remote control, manual, mains cable, and our standard three month warranty.
Cyrus Say….
The 6a integrated amplifier was based on the 8 series amplifier. The ‘a’ version is the analogue amplifier unlike the ‘d’ versions that have the onboard DAC. Delivering a true 40 W power into 8 ohms, no compromises had been made elsewhere in the amplifier. Like other Cyrus amplifiers they have twin speaker outputs for the ability to bi-wire your speakers.
The amplifier is equipped with Pre-amp out for bi-amping, intuitive user interface via graphic LCD display. Line inputs plus Zone 2 output or tape monitor, Cyrus MC-BUS to incorporate it into your Cyrus AV system. Factory upgrades were available to upgrade to full digital specifications or up to the 8 series range.
