Does everything in high fidelity
The Exposure XM5 is a modern amplifier based on the amplification circuit of the Exposure 2010S2. The multi-talented Exposure XM5 has a competent DAC and phono stage installed, meaning that it takes on everything music lovers might need for it. With a high capacity 200VA custom-made toroidal power transformer and power supply means a good grip on your speakers while. Smart engineering means it takes up
Takes on everything
The amplifier comes with 5 digital inputs features 2 coax, 2 optical and 1 usb type-B input. It also comes with 1 Aux and 1 phono input. This makes it a stellar performer that works at the heart of your system, whether in a high fidelity listening room or living room sound system. You’ll be able to plug in your record player, TV, streamer, CD player, gaming equipment and more, all at the same time. The DAC is built around the Wolfson WM8742, making it a brilliant performer.
Incredibly good sound
With serious functionality, comes great performance. It’s no secret among audio enthusiasts that Exposure Electronics builds its products for an engaging experience leveraged from 40 years of high-end audio. The Exposure XM5 is a compact unit but engineered intelligently to give you a full-sized sound and soundstage. This includes cascade circuitry, a 200 VA custom-wound toroidal transformer, and includes a specially tuned short signal path with high-quality capacitors.
Use it as a standalone preamplifier or standalone stereo amplifier
The Exposure XM5 Integrated Amplifier also features a passive preamplifier stage that ensures a polished mid-range sound and pleasing highs. An upgraded wattage from the legendary Exposure XM5 integrated amplifier means more power to drive a soundstage and the enveloping bass.
Should you want an extra stereo-amplifier, all that’s needed is to hook up an integrated amplifier’s pre-outs, turning it from a high-performance integrated amplifier into a capable preamplifier. It also has an AV input which lets you feed an external preamplifier’s sound input into the Exposure XM5 stereo amplifier portion, bypassing the passive preamplifier.
Perfect looks in your home
Exposure Electronics' dedication to sound quality shows in its minimalist, no-fuss approach to the amplifier’s cabinet. The anodised aluminium faceplate serves to shield the electrical components from stray IR. It also has a dramatically smaller footprint than most full-sized amplifiers.
