Special Design Features
Construction The beautifully styled curving front panel is milled from solid
6.0mm (0.2”) thick aluminium extrusion and finished in a satin
chrome electroplate. The front panel also features the
mboob^ru
®
logo machined into the solid aluminium. The
chassis and cover are both manufactured from heavy gauge steel.
No cover fixing screws are visible. The “Silhouette” SXD2 is
stylish yet functional and exhibits typical hallmarks of the
Perreaux brand.
Circuit
Topology
The Power
Supply
The SXD2 has an internal power supply. These designs are
invariably more sophisticated than those featuring external plug-
in power packs. Special attention must be paid to shielding,
transformer design, capacitance and earthing.
Separate
Analog and
Digital
Supplies
We have specially developed a fully shielded, toroidal
transformer with three separate secondary windings. Five
regulated power supplies are employed, three analog and two
digital. This ensures the analog circuitry has maximum isolation
from any digital power supply artefacts and noise.
