Product Description
Canor Virtus I4S Integrated Solid-State Amplifier

Foundation Line

Canor Virtus I4S

The Virtus I4S is part of Canor's  Foundation and is a line integrated amplifier featuring a built-in phono stage and headphone output.

Highlights

 ⦁   Centrally placed control knob provides intuitive operation and a direct, tactile user experience.

 ⦁   Compact solution that merges an integrated amplifier, phono preamplifier, and headphone amplifier.

 ⦁   Fully discrete Class AB solid-state amplifier built on a true dual-mono architecture.

Main Features

Lifestyle device packed with high-end technology

A minimalist, modern design crafted from quality materials conceals high-end, fully discrete and dual-mono circuit technology. With solid power on tap, it delivers a clean, superior, engaging sound in a sleek lifestyle form.

New design defined by premium materials

A new design elevated by premium materials such as aluminium, glass, and steel, introduced with Canor’s first ever bronze finish for a more unique and sophisticated presence.

Discrete XLR inputs, exceptional in this category

At this level, fully discrete balanced XLR inputs are exceptional. The Virtus I4S incorporates this design to ensure maximum synergy with the complementary DAC Verto D4S, allowing balanced signals to be handled with precision and delivering phenomenal sound.

Phono settings adjustable via remote control

A versatile remote control handling all essential amplifier functions, with extended access to phono features including MM/MC selection and cartridge parameter adjustment.

Finely tuned touchscreen user interface

1.8” LCD touchscreen allows full control of the device and all its functions with an intuitive and smooth user experience. Responsive touch navigation brings a new level of convenience, making interaction effortless and precise.

Advanced hybrid cooling design

A sophisticated cooling architecture combines massive copper elements thermally bonded to the output transistors and a massive aluminium top plate surface. The intelligently controlled fan keeps temperatures stable and noise free.

Prolonging critical component lifespans

A smart relay maintenance system continuously preserves relay contact quality by high frequency signal switching, enhancing conductivity and extending service life. It's fully automatic and seamlessly integrated.

Uniquely engineered flat coil inductor

Custom designed, unique flat coil output stage inductor is carefully engineered to enhance signal integrity while ensuring no added distortion is introduced and preserving audio purity.

Product features

⦁   Refined central knob with an integrated 1.8-inch display combines a dual bearing design, ultra smooth rotation, and innovative CCD based position sensing for precise, tactile control.

⦁   Fully discrete dual-mono circuit technology.

⦁   Discrete built in headphone amplifier with top notch parameters, sufficient to power the vast majority of high quality headphones.

⦁   Finest discrete phono amplifier supporting MM/MC with gain adjustment, a wide range of capacitance and impedance settings via front display.

⦁   Exceptional 40 000 µF per channel filtering capacity in the power supply allows the Virtus I4S to deliver deep, dynamic bass with precision and control.

⦁   Low distortion variable RCA output designed to support subwoofers or additional power amplifiers with a clean, precise signal.

⦁   Low output impedance improves the overall amplifier's sonic performance thanks to the use of oversized output transistors and an unconventional circuit design.

⦁   The Virtus I4S adopts some proven concepts and technologies from the reference line Virtus S1S, such as an "Error Correction Technology", which is a specialized local feedback circuit to linearize the amplifier output stage. This technology helps to prevent transient distortion from occurring in the first place, rather than relying on overall feedback to suppress it. Ideally, this results in a weaker overall feedback circuit compared to one without error correction.

⦁   The display offers two colour theme options, allowing the user to select their preferred interface appearance.

⦁   Virtus I4S supports wireless firmware update.

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

Do you have a real store?

Yes! We have a store set in a quaint location with plenty of parking even for HGV's! We have a dedicated demonstration room for Headphones/portable audio, 2 channel HiFi and one of the most advanced home cinema rooms in the country.

Can I home demonstrate products?

In most cases yes. Simply contact us with your requirements and if it's on the shop floor - we can arrange a home demonstration.

Do you ship from store?

In most cases yes. We have a store front with products such as cables and smaller products physically to hand. We also have a dedicated warehouse a few minutes away with over 1200sq m of products stored. Some products are shipped direct from manufacturers - as it's not practical / cost effective to store every variant of every product. We are very efficient at stock management however.

Can I return a product?

Yes! So long as it's new/unused and in the same condition it was delivered to you, we will gladly refund you up to 14 days from purchase. Please raise a request via your Account area to start the return process.

Do you offer installation?

Absolutely - we have a dedicated, in-house team of installers who travel the UK installing lovely hifi and home cinema solutions. Contact us to discuss pricing.
