The Original Compact Cyrus Amplifier
Introduced in 1984, the Cyrus One helped establish the compact format that became a hallmark of the brand. Its straightforward analogue design combines a preamplifier and stereo power amplifier in one narrow chassis, making it a practical centrepiece for a traditional vinyl and CD system.
- 25 watts per channel into 8 ohms: rising to a published 40 watts per channel into 4 ohms, with both channels driven.
- Built-in phono stage: a dedicated turntable input alongside line-level connections for sources such as a CD player or tuner.
- Separate listen and record selectors: choose the source sent to a recorder independently of the one playing through the speakers.
- Simple operation: direct rotary controls keep everyday source selection and volume adjustment straightforward.
- Compact proportions: a 215mm-wide case suits installations where a full-width amplifier would take up too much space.
