Strength:
Crispy & clear sound with natural warmth music
Weakness:
None so far... I have been using surrond receivers for years. I tried Nad, Denon, Yamaha, Marantz and many more. I believe they sound great and should be comparable to Amplifiers especially they have very similar power ratings. I settled with Marantz (SR5300 with 90W continues to 6 channels) becasue I like the warmth and open sound stage. I though I have everything until one day one of my friend, who is an audiophile, told me that I should really try using an Amp for my front and center channels since I have pre outs already. He said that will really improve my sound experiences. I did not believe him 100% but willing to try. We found the Acurus 100x3 on eBay. After I hook up the Amp, I immediately notice the improvement. The sound is more crispy, clear, with definition. The bass is much tigher as well. I could not be happier becasue I can hear a lot more than before. After I read lots of reveiw about Acurus, they are really great amps. Acurus provide 80%+ performance with only 20% of the price comparing to all the high amps. Now I listen to more stereo because Acurus really being the music alive. I don't understand why the Amp sound so much better under similar power ratings. If anyone out there understand, please send me a quick e-mail. Thanks |

Strength:
Great sound, great build quality, stays cool.
Weakness:
None at this price! When it comes to budget audiophile gear, I thought NAD and Rotel were the only game in town. How wrong I was, this amp has everything those guys have and more. Throws up a nice wide soundstage, crisp highs without being too bright, sweet midrange and an absence of graininess often associated with gear at this price. I still can't believe I got this thing for only $450, brand new! The guy I bought from has quite a few more that he is trying to liquidate from a failing A/V business. Check it out on ebay.

I have to admit that I was a bit skeptical about the improvements better amps could make with the sound of speakers. I was wrong, so very wrong! This amp replaced a Carver AV405 and I think that I can honestly say that I have never been happier with the sound of my current speakers (Definitive Technology DR7 Towers) when powered by this Acurus amp. |

I recently bought the Acurus A100x3 after searching for a power amp for about 2 years (i am slow and picky) Running from my Sony 7700 DVD/CD transport to a MSB digital director, MSB link DAC and Elite 5.1 reciever and NOW the A100x3 too my NHT Super2s WOW ! Sound is very clean and the low end has tightended up dramatically ! midrange is improved and will get beter as the burn in hours progress most happy with this purchase overall !!! |

A100X3 for Fronts, A100X2 for rears - 2 words: kicks ass. Compared it with some of the Rotel and NAD amps and the Acurus's just sounded fuller in sound. The craftsmanship was also better, more solid. The Rotel Amplifier I had in the past sounded good, but was pretty flimpsy and only had a 2 prong electrical plug. |

Strength:
Runs cool, Solid build.
Weakness:
Power light. I purchased this product as a slightly used Demo to replace an older Adcom. First of let me say that the build quality was what I was initially impressed with, this is a real piece of Audio equipment and it is made to last.
