Seamlessly integrate a preamp or modeler into your Fryette Power Station tube amp rig.
Built on decades of experience producing some of the finest all-tube power amps available, the Fryette Power Station has become one of the most popular, and really, the only product of its kind on the market. As an invaluable tone tool for enhancing preamps and modelers, Power Station users frequently want to know how best to integrate the Power Station into more complex rigs where routing and ground loop problems can be challenging. Enter Cyclops, a convenient and practical solution that manages signal routing, level matching, silent switching and ground isolation all in one elegantly simple package.
Seamlessly Switch Between Your Tube Amp + Power Station and a Preamp/Modeler
The Cyclops box is a transformer-isolated Dual A/B switcher that allows you to connect an amplifier and a preamp/modeler to your Power Station at once simultaneously. Plug your guitar or pedalboard output into the Cyclops input, and it sends your signal to either your amp or preamp. It then routes your preamp output or loaded amp signal to the Power Station line input for re-amping to your speaker cabinet.
You now can effectively add any preamp or modeling device to any vintage or modern cranked tube amplifier using either the Cyclops front panel switch or the optional FC-1A remote footswitch located on your pedalboard (sold separately).
If you are a Power Station PS-2 or PS-100 user, the Cyclops box is truly a must-have addition to your current rig.
