Achieving the perfect balance of sonic attributes, the Aesthetix Jupiter and now the new Saturn series imbue the music with breathtaking beauty.  

Each Aesthetix unit is hand built. All units undergo a rigorous test procedure, which includes auditioning in a high quality audio system.

The Aesthetix High Resolution Volume Control is a 46 position, true balanced constant input impedance stepped attenuator, custom manufactured to our exacting specifications. Aesthetix dual mono circuit boards use one volume control per channel, truly balancing both legs of the signal.

The Callisto Line Stage optimizes both single-ended (RCA) and balanced (XLR) inputs and outputs. The Callisto audio chassis contains one main amplification section and an output buffer section. The first section is a medium gain, low noise, zero feedback (or 6 dB feedback from single ended sources) differential amplifier composed of a 6922 tube and a 12AX7 tube. Lastly, the signal is buffered and sent to the output jacks in balanced form.

The Io Phono Stage's high gain/low noise, all-tube audio circuitry is capable of successfully amplifying today's ultra-low output moving coil cartridges. Flexible gain and loading adjustments make the Io perfect for all cartridges. Io Phono Stage with Aesthetix volume controls is the ultimate dedicated phono pre-amp for the vinyl connoisseur. The Phono Stage contains three main amplification sections and an output buffer stage.  The RIAA filter is next in the signal path, a purely passive design with the highest grade capacitors and non-inductive wire wound resistors throughout. Back panels reflect true dual mono circuit boards and balanced circuit topology.

SATURN SERIES
Rhea phono stage, Calypso line stage and Janus preamp

The Saturn series combines the sonic excellence of the Jupiter preamps in single chassis, beautifully styled, remote controlled components that elevate the performance of all high end music and home cinema audio systems.

• Brushed anodized chassis and side panels.

• Bottom of the chassis integrates into front panel for enhanced rigidity.

• Top cover is acoustically inert and allows easy access for maintenance.

• The transformers are encased in a stainless steel cover that provides electrical and magnetic shielding in addition to providing structural rigidity.

• AC wires run from the enclosed rear receptacle through the channel up to the transformer cover, reducing unwanted noise and increasing clarity and dynamics.
  
  
  
  

• Audio circuit boards are derived from the Jupiter series and are dual mono, providing excellent channel separation for superb imaging.

• All the circuit boards interconnect with minimal wiring for efficient, reliable manufacture and shortest possible signal paths.

• Power supply design is derived from the Jupiter series. Two separate transformers, one for the high current, low voltage vacuum tube heater supplies and the other for low current high voltage, solid state and control circuitry. Choke input power supply on the high voltage transformer. All vacuum tube heaters are DC regulated.

The first American designed and manufactured cartridge demagnetizer, the ABCD-1, keeps your analog front-end sounding its best. Once a week, simply plug in your turntable leads to the ABCD-1, then activate the gently ramped, up-and-down cycle of the ultra-pure demagnetizing signal.

Today's best moving coil phono cartridges use very strong magnets such as neodymium and samarium cobalt. When the moving coil absorbs some of the magnet's charge, the sound becomes murky and less defined. This is because the magnetized coil does not generate as great a variation as it moves within the magnetic field of the phono cartridge.

The ABCD-1 neutralizes the unwanted magnetic charge of the moving coil, restoring full performance in a matter of minutes. Demagnetizing your moving coil cartridge with the Aesthetix ABCD-1 every 1 - 2 weeks will prolong the life of your phono cartridge, increasing your enjoyment and appreciation of the music.

The Aesthetix ABCD-1 was designed to meet a specific need in today's marketplace: an affordable MC cartridge demagnetizer which restores your cartridge's potential without residual sonic signature.
