From the Mark Levinson website:

With a single-chassis design, the N°326S achieves separation
of audio circuit, control circuit, and power supply sections similar to that of
the dual-chassis N°32.

The internal structure of the N°326S separates these
sections, while a steel shield box protects the power supply and other circuits
against electrostatic and magnetic interference. Filtered AC power is routed
outside audio circuit sections, providing audio circuits with the quiet,
shielded environment essential for superior sound. Like most high-performance
audio components, the N°326S relies on clean, noise-free AC power to deliver
maximum performance. Unfortunately, most AC power does not meet these standards.
Common household appliances such as refrigerators, TVs, and computers often
contaminate AC power lines with line noise, spikes, and other irregularities
that make it difficult for audio circuits to perform up to their full
potential.

To compensate for this, the N°326S offers a series of highly
effective noise suppression and isolation techniques that begin filtering AC
power for noise as soon as it enters the chassis. Audio and control circuit
sections use independent power supplies, each with its own low-noise toroidal
transformer. The audio circuit power transformer includes a Faraday shield
between the AC power line and low-voltage secondaries for improved isolation.
