Onkyo P-80 Preamplifier

Onkyo P-80 PreamplifierThe Onkyo P-80 is a reference-grade stereo preamplifier designed to be the command centre of a high-end separates system. Featuring fully balanced XLR inputs and outputs, a high-resolution 192 kHz/24-bit DAC, both MM and MC phono stages, a USB DAC input, and Bluetooth aptX HD, the P-80 combines analogue purity with modern digital versatility. Pair it with the Onkyo M-80 Power Amplifier for a complete reference-level stereo system.Key Features Fully balanced XLR inputs and outputs for maximum noise rejection and signal integrity 192 kHz/24-bit DAC (ES9018K2M) for high-resolution digital audio playback MM and MC phono stages — connect any turntable, moving-magnet or moving-coil cartridge USB DAC input — up to 384 kHz/32-bit PCM and DSD 11.2 MHz from a connected computer Bluetooth aptX HD for high-quality wireless streaming from smartphones and tablets Tone defeat / direct mode for a pure, unprocessed signal path 5 analogue RCA inputs plus 2 balanced XLR inputs for comprehensive source connectivity 2 x RCA pre-outputs and 1 x balanced XLR pre-output for flexible amplifier connection 12 V trigger output for automatic power-on of compatible power amplifiers Headphone amplifier with 6.35 mm output for private listening Remote control included for full system operation from your listening position Reference-Grade Signal PathThe P-80's fully balanced architecture carries the signal from XLR input through to the balanced output stage with complete common-mode noise rejection at every stage. The ES9018K2M DAC chip — a reference-grade converter — handles digital sources with exceptional resolution and low jitter. A dedicated USB DAC input accepts PCM up to 384 kHz/32-bit and native DSD up to 11.2 MHz, making the P-80 a capable hub for a high-resolution computer audio system.Complete Phono FlexibilityBoth MM and MC phono stages are built in, with individually adjustable loading for MC cartridges. Whether you run a high-output MM cartridge or a low-output MC, the P-80 provides the correct gain and impedance matching for optimal performance from your turntable.Specifications Preamplifier Section Frequency Response 5 Hz–100 kHz / +0 dB, -3 dB (Direct) THD+N 0.003% (1 kHz, Balanced) Input Sensitivity / Impedance (Balanced) 150 mV rms / 40 kohm (XLR) Input Sensitivity / Impedance (Unbalanced) 150 mV rms / 20 kohm (RCA) Output Level / Impedance (Balanced) 1.0 V rms / 200 ohm (XLR) Output Level / Impedance (Unbalanced) 1.0 V rms / 100 ohm (RCA) Signal-to-Noise Ratio 120 dB (IHF-A, Balanced) | 116 dB (IHF-A, Unbalanced) Tone Control +/-10 dB at 100 Hz (Bass) | +/-10 dB at 10 kHz (Treble) Phono Section MM Input Sensitivity / Impedance 2.5 mV rms / 47 kohm MC Input Sensitivity / Impedance 0.3 mV rms / 100 ohm (adjustable) Phono SNR (MM) 86 dB (IHF-A) Phono SNR (MC) 72 dB (IHF-A) DAC Section DAC Chip ESS ES9018K2M (Sabre Reference) DAC Resolution (Coaxial / Optical) Up to 192 kHz / 24-bit PCM DAC Resolution (USB) Up to 384 kHz / 32-bit PCM | DSD 2.8 / 5.6 / 11.2 MHz (native) Connectivity Balanced Inputs 2 x XLR stereo Unbalanced Analogue Inputs 5 x RCA stereo (Line), 1 x MM Phono, 1 x MC Phono Digital Inputs 1 x Optical (TOSLINK), 1 x Coaxial (RCA), 1 x USB-B (DAC) Balanced Outputs 2 x XLR stereo (Pre-out) Unbalanced Outputs 2 x RCA stereo (Pre-out), 1 x RCA (Record out) Headphone Output 1 x 6.35 mm (1/4 inch) Trigger Output 1 x 3.5 mm (12 V DC) Bluetooth aptX HD — A2DP, AVRCP General Power Supply AC 220–240 V~, 50/60 Hz Power Consumption (Operating) 50 W Power Consumption (Standby) 0.3 W Dimensions (W x H x D) 435 x 171 x 407 mm Weight (Net) 10.8 kg Colour Black Supplied Accessories Remote controller, AAA batteries x 2, Power cable, Quick Start Guide Specifications sourced from Onkyo.
