Mark Levinson No. 585.5 Integrated Amplifier c/w DAC& MM/MC Phono-DEMO/MINT/WARRANTY!

This is a Mark Levinson No. 585.5 reference level integrated amplifier with a built-in precision DAC and MM/MC phono preamplifier.  The unit is absolutely mint and is NOT a refurbish or recertified model.  The unit is very lightly used for demonstration.  The ML No. 585.5 is complete with manual, full aluminum remote control and packaging.  The unit rates a 10 out of a 11. 

Nº585.5

Evolution 

The Mark Levinson Nº 585 has swept up best in
class awards and countless accolades around the world, and is now widely
regarded as perhaps the finest integrated amplifier ever made. Now, the Nº
585.5 redefines the playback quality of a classic medium; by adding the same
Pure Phono stage found in the award winning Nº 523 and Nº 526 preamplifiers
taking the reproduction of any source material to new heights of realism. 

Architecture 

The
foundation of the No 585.5 is its fully discrete, mirror-imaged, dual-monaural
analog circuitry featuring individual signal switching relays for each of its
five stereo inputs: one XLR and three RCA plus a Stereo Pure Phono stage.
Volume controls use discrete R2R ladders and low-noise analog switches for the
widest possible bandwidth and maximum signal integrity. The fully-differential
Class AB power stage includes an oversized 900VA toroidal transformer with
individual secondary windings for the left and right channels.

Amplification 

Each elegantly simple amplifier channel
utilizes twelve output transistors and multiple smaller local capacitors that
allow them to be placed physically closer to the amplifiers for greater
transient response when power is needed immediately. This robust architecture
results in a conservative power rating of 200W per channel. System integration
and expansion are possible using the stereo RCA pre-outs which can operate
full-range or with an included switchable, second-order, 80Hz crossover filter
allowing for seamless integration into 2.1-channel systems with powered
subwoofers. 

Pure Phono: Class A for a Classic Medium The
Pure Phono stage is a discrete design with no op-amps and operates exclusively
in class A throughout, employing tantalum nitride thin-film resistors and
polypropylene capacitors with exceptionally low tolerances. 

A fixed-gain moving magnet (MM) section with
five capacitive cartridge-loading settings, and a moving coil (MC) section with
three gain settings and 10 resistive cartridge-loading settings ensures
optimization for any cartridge. And an ultrasonic filter intelligently compensates
for rumble and warping. The Pure Phono stage also contains physically separated
channels and balanced inputs for sonic purity.
