Fully balanced circuitry from input to output, including internal balancing of single-ended inputs, results in common mode signal rejection and cleaner sound. The innovative discrete switched resistor volume control maximizes resolution at any listening level. A separate power supply chassis removes any possibility of transformer noise corrupting the delicate audio circuitry. Peter Moncrief Stealth Capacitors are used in the Eclipse Edition for unparalleled sound quality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\n•Fully balanced differential circuitry with ability to internally balance a single-ended input signal.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n•Innovative and unique mechanically switched discrete resistor volume control with 46 positions using Roederstein resistors.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n•Separate volume controls and input selectors for each channel.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n•All tube amplification and output (8 tubes total).\u003cbr\u003e\r\n•Separate vacuum tube regulated power supply utilizing 8 tubes.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n•Two sets of XLR and two sets of RCA outputs per channel.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n•Six inputs: First two single-ended (rca) or balanced (XLR); remaining four single-ended (rca) only.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nTechnical Specifications:- \u003cbr\u003e\r\nInputs: Six inputs: First two single-ended (rca) or balanced (XLR); remaining four single-ended (rca) only\u003cbr\u003e\r\nOutputs: 2 RCA (SE) and XLR (balanced), 1 tape RCA\u003cbr\u003e\r\nLine level gain: 23 dB single ended (SE), in\/out, and 29 dB balanced\/out\u003cbr\u003e\r\nVolume control: switched resistor network volume control with 46 steps\u003cbr\u003e\r\nFront panel controls: Left and right input select, left and right volume\u003cbr\u003e\r\nRemote controls(optional): Volume, mute, balance, phase (option)\u003cbr\u003e\r\nFrequency response: +- 0.25 dB, 20 Hz - 20 Khz\u003cbr\u003e\r\nSignal to noise: measured at 70 dB minimum, A-weighted (ref 1 mv input, 75 dB gain setting)\u003cbr\u003e\r\nLine input impedence: 100K ohms SE, 200K ohms balanced \u003cbr\u003e\r\nOutput impedence: 1K ohms SE, 600 ohms balanced\u003cbr\u003e\r\nRecommended amplifier load: 10K ohms or greater (SE), 20K ohms or greater (Balanced)\u003cbr\u003e\r\nTubes, each channel: (line section) V1 (6922), V2 (12AX7), V3 (6922), V4 (6SN7)\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPower consumption: 300 watts\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nPhysical dimensions: \u003cbr\u003e\r\nMain unit, MkII or Signature: 5 5\/8\" high, 19\" wide, 18\" deep including jacks\u003cbr\u003e\r\nMain unit, Eclipse: 5 1\/2\" high, 17 1\/2\" wide, 18\" deep including jacks\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPower supply, MkII or Signature: 5 5\/8\" high, 19\" wide, \" deep including jacks\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPower supply, Eclipse: 5 5\/8\" high, 17 1\/2\" wide, 18 1\/4\" deep including jacks\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nShipping weights:\u003cbr\u003e\r\nMain unit, MkII or Signature: 42 Lbs\u003cbr\u003e\r\nMain unit, Eclipse: 47 Lbs\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPower supply, MkII or Signature: 50 Lbs\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPower supply, Eclipse: 55 Lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nCALLISTO OPTIONS AND UPGRADES\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nMk II, Signature and Eclipse\u003cbr\u003e\r\nCallisto is available in three versions: Mk II, Signature and Eclipse (see tabs above for more detail on each version). The Mk II version uses high-grade Rel-Cap polypropylene coupling capacitors. The Signature version uses exotic and expensive coupling capacitors and other critical parts to bring the performance to a higher level. Eclipse is the ultimate realization of the true capabilities of the Callisto, incorporating constrained-layer damped machined aluminum panels and Peter Moncrief's Stealth Capacitors. All versions of Callisto can be factory upgraded to Signature or Eclipse.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nDual Power Supply\u003cbr\u003e\r\nCallisto comes with a single power supply standard, or optionally a second power supply may be added for true dual-mono (see \"Power Supply\" tab above for more detail).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nRemote Control\u003cbr\u003e\r\nRemote control is optional with the Callisto. Adding the system allows remote adjustment for volume and muting, and optionally phase. The remote system uses motors and pulleys to rotate the volume controls and has a completely isolated electrical system. It may be added to any version of Callisto (see \"Remote Control\" tab above for more detail).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nFaceplate Finish\u003cbr\u003e\r\nCallisto Mk II and Signature available with black or silver faceplate.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nCustom Finishes\u003cbr\u003e\r\nCallisto Eclipse may be ordered with custom finishes\r\n","brand":"Aesthetix","offers":[{"title":"Aesthetix Jupiter Series: Callisto Eclipse Linestage-Silver Faceplate","offer_id":57851265220940,"sku":"AESTHETJUPCALLISTOECLIPSE-S","price":17650.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Aesthetix Jupiter Series: Callisto Eclipse Linestage - Black Faceplate","offer_id":57851265253708,"sku":"AESTHETJUPCALLISTOECL-B","price":17650.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1053\/6891\/2204\/files\/Aesthetix_CallistoEclipse_Linestage_frontview_silver.jpg?v=1781883236","url":"https:\/\/www.stoneaudio.co.uk\/products\/aesthetix-aesthetix-jupiter-series-callisto-line-stage","provider":"Stone Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
