ASR Emitter ii Exclusive

I have just bought the Emitter II exclusive blue version . My current amps are Mark Levinson 33monoblock that are on 220 Volts 40 amp breakers each . The Emitter has deeper bass, is more dynamic has better transients and a way better soundstage presence. I have been using Watt Puppies 5.1 with the AR LS1, CAT and the Calypso . The watt puppy are probably an easier load to drive but the Emitter has plenty of juice to make them sing . Good Luck

I presume u are not using a sep pre-amp..?

Aren't these things battery powered?

Only the line stage

Well, yes and no. The amp side runs on two separate power supplies one for each channel. They are heavy ,at 70 lbs each. The battery is only for the input stage. This units weight is around 45 lbs. When the unit is OFF or in STANDBY the battery is in the charge mode.
When the unit is in the ON (position one or two , the unit has two volume positions) the battery is then being used for listening. The battery is then diconnected from the line voltage charger via a relay. This way no ac in the unit to screw things up in the line stage.
