Two more members Constellation Audio's new Performance line are the Lyra phonostage (left) and Crux 2-channel power amp (right), which delivers 250Wpc into 8Ω. Like the Vega preamp and Sygnus CD player/music server/DAC, these products deliver virtually the same sonic character as their counterparts in the Reference line for about a third the price, and they look wicked cool to boot.
