Cyrus Audio PSX-R Power Supply CYRUS PSX-r POWER SUPPLY for CYRUS AMPS ,Etc ONE ONLY FOR SALE! in good condition have original Condition: Excellent Payment Method: CASh,EFT,Paypal Region/State: (WA) Western Australia/Australia By smart 1 Comments AUD $350 Date: June 13, 20241 yr
At A$350, this used Cyrus PSX R looks like a screaming bargain against our recent comps—median asking price sits at AUD 1,842, with the 25th percentile at AUD 1,671 and 75th at AUD 1,842. That's a fraction of the typical used range for a solid PSX R power supply, which punches above its weight in cleaning up noise for Cyrus stacks; timing's spot-on too, as these first-gen units hold value amid newer, pricier regen alternatives flooding the market.
Buyers, verify the condition closely—check for swollen caps or hum from dried electrolytics, common in 20+ year-old PSXs run hot. Confirm it includes the original IEC cable and any jumper links for bi-wiring, and test output voltage stability under load with your amp to rule out regulator drift. Pass if it's untested.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Cyrus Audio: Heritage and Philosophy
Cyrus Audio emerged in 1984 as a specialist electronics brand spun off from loudspeaker manufacturer Mission, with the goal of creating amplifiers to complement Mission speakers. Founded under the direction of Peter Bartlett, a veteran from NAD, the company established its identity with the Cyrus One integrated amplifier—a half-width design featuring the distinctive "control lip" that remains iconic in audiophile circles today. The brand quickly positioned itself as a pioneer in compact, high-performance audio, and later became one of the first manufacturers to champion the Compact Disc format through its partnership with Philips in the early 1980s. After separating from Mission in the 1990s, Bartlett returned Cyrus to private ownership, where it remains independently operated from its Cambridgeshire headquarters.
Cyrus has maintained unwavering focus as a two-channel hi-fi specialist, eschewing multiroom or surround formats. The company's product portfolio centers on integrated amplifiers, power amplifiers, CD players, digital-to-analog converters, and power supplies—all engineered around the principle of delivering high-end sound quality in compact form factors. The brand also pioneered networked audio, developing early high-performance music servers that demonstrated premium sound could be achieved in convenient, integrated packages.
Today, Cyrus occupies a distinctive position as a boutique, high-end British manufacturer that prioritizes sonic excellence and longevity over market size. Under current CEO Nick Clarke, the company continues evolving its Classic series—refined continuously since 1983—and the XR series, developed from scratch using cutting-edge DAC technology and UK manufacturing. Cyrus products consistently earn critical acclaim and industry awards, appealing to discerning audiophiles who value British engineering, meticulous design, and uncompromising sound quality over mass-market accessibility.
