CYRUS Audio release NEW 40 series!

The whole team at Cyrus Audio are very happy to announce the launch of a brand-new range of products, named the 40 Series. 

The 40 Series marks a new and exciting beginning for this long-standing British audio brand.

Cyrus Audio, the much-loved and renowned British audio brand has today announced the arrival of the 40 Series, a new beginning in the story of Cyrus Audio. Focussed around four core models, the 40 series provides the listener with a streamlined premium audio experience that will fit seamlessly into the home of today’s music lovers while offering an exceptional audio performance. Engineered from anodised aluminium and with all key components custom designed, the 40 series is proud to be made in Britain, the home of Cyrus.

The first thing you’ll notice about the 40 series, and it is impossible to miss, is the all-new sleek design, and what a good job they have made of it. The front panel is uncluttered, with a headphone connection and a beautiful edge to edge glass finish that hides a high-resolution TFT display, bringing full colour album art to all you streaming fans out there.

It is good to see that the attention to detail did not stop there, with the main chassis being made from aluminium, and finished in an eye catching anodised brushed black. The volume control has been given the level of attention not normally seen, having been custom designed from five separate elements and also engineered from solid aluminium, providing very positive feedback to the user.

Cyrus have also designed a brand-new remote control for the 40 series, which perfectly matches the finish and fits perfectly into your hand for easy control from the comfort of your sofa. If you prefer your hi-fi to blend into the background, they have also covered that with the ability to auto turn-off the display which then comes to life when you approach the unit. You also won’t see the normal amount of visible screw heads across the 40 Series, in fact the only place you will see any on show is the rear panel, with the main body being held together via the very cleverly designed feet.

The changes aren’t only on the outside, with the 40 Series being treated to a brand-new DAC design from Cyrus. Based upon the latest offering from ESS, the Sabre ES9039Q2M chipset and HyperStream IV Dual DAC technology has been analysed by their engineering team and the board layout fully optimised to tune the DAC so that the 40 series can achieve the highest possible performance.

We are very happy to see that Cyrus has retained the half width design that is so synonymous with the brand, but by adding a centimetre here and there, the products definitely stand out on the shelf stronger than previous products. The team at Cyrus have been working on the 40 series for the past 2 years, which began with a 360° review of their sales trends over the past 10 years. Chris explained “we are a small but very talented team here at Cyrus. We need to make sure that we have a clear and focused direction, so that we are designing and launching products that are in demand from our customers.”

Hopefully that explains why the 40 series is made up of an integrated amplifier, integrated cd player, network streamer and external power supply. The team are also working on a brand-new phono preamplifier, which we have been told will be available later next year. The very exciting news is that the 40 Series is only ‘part one’ of Cyrus’ new beginning product roadmap. We cannot wait to see what else is on its way from the team at Cyrus in 2025.
