· 2-chassis design with the larger chassis housing the power supply, digital controller
  circuitry and software processing. The smaller chassis contains audio circuitry ONLY
· 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 based on the R-2R resistor array configuration using 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 for “user selectable” maximum volume setting lock-out for each line input
· Power supply voltage regulation includes i²DCf (Independant Inductive DC Filtering);
  There is one inductor dedicated to each integrated circuit type component (DAC,
  Op-Amp, etc.) 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 gain
  section of the P-8 is bypassed
· 530 individual volume steps in 1dB and 0.1dB increments
· 12 Volt trigger outputs for remote operation
· An exceptionally short signal path measuring less than 8 inches in length from the
  rear panel's input to output connectors, yielding a much faster transient response
· Fully differential, no global feedback circuit topology, using absolutely no capacitors
  anywhere in the audio signal path
· Four-layer PCB tracings; Layers 1 and 3 for the audio signals, layer 2 for the ground
  plane and the bottom layer for power supplies. The advantages include better
  ground and power supply circuit layouts resulting in a much shorter signal path
  and dramatically improved signal-to-noise ratio
· Ultra 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 reliabilty through the elimination of moving parts
· Low operating temperature for a longer than normal life expectancy.
