ACURUS A250 AMP (individual price on e-Bay $500)
The Acarus A250 is an enormously powerful amplifier. Even without considering its modest cost, its quality, no matter how defined, is equally impressive. Clearly, its electrical performance is topnotch delivering 250 watts per channel into 8 ohms, or 350 watts into 4 ohms, from 20 to 20,000 Hz with no more than 0.06 percent total harmonic distortion (THD). Its input impedance is 20,000 ohms, and its A-weighted signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) is specified as 110 dB. This is one serious vintage amp!
ACURUS L10 PREAMP (individual price on e-Bay $400)
They said that the Acurus L10 OUTPERFORMED the $4,500 KRELL Preamp in terms of Flatter Frequency Response, Better Channel Separation/crosstalk, and Less Noise/THD!!!
This line level preamp is extremely simple, as preamps ought to be, and is ultra clean with regards to both signal performance and physical condition. The topology was designed by a former Krell engineer (William Snyder). It utilizes a fully discrete power supply regulator with no global feedback and fully discrete line stage topology. Neutral, transparent - the way the music was meant to be heard!
Very intelligent and solid build. Five identical knobs arranged symmetrically across the thick anodized aluminum faceplate: 1 -- Off/On/Mute 2 -- Volume 3 -- Balance 4 -- Listen Switch 5 -- Record Switch
Specifications: Frequency Response -- 20 to 20000 Hz +0.0, -0.15 dB Total Harmonic Distortion -- 0.06% Signal to Noise Ratio -- 95 dB, A weighted High Level Sensitivity -- 60mV Maximum Output Voltage -- 8 Volts RMS Voltage Gain at Full Volume -- 18.8 dB Input Impedance -- 10K ohms Output Impedance -- 47 ohms Tape Outputs
