Acurus ACT-3 Surround Processor/Preamplifier by Mondale......No Remote. ACT-3 Surround Processor/Preamp Dolby Pro-Logic, Dolby Digital, and DTS Decoding 20 Bit D/As and A/Ds 11 Digital Inputs (8 Coaxial, 3 Toslink), 4 Sets A/V inputs, 4 sets Audio-Only Inputs; Outputs Include 2 Center and 2 Subwoofer RS-232 Port Size: 5 1/2H x 17W x 13D Weight: 14 Pounds MSRP: $1,799 USA Acurus, a division of Mondial, aimed at the entry level market of high end, started shipping the ACT-3 recently, a surround processor/preamplifier equipped with Dolby Pro Logic (DPL), Dolby Digital (DD - AC-3), and DTS decoding. Even if a specialized company should choose to stray near the territory of the big kids on the block, not many do for precisely that reason. The little companies, though a scrappy bunch, dont have the facilities or the financial clout to generate products in volume sufficient to set the cost per unit low enough. If they did, they still lack the advertising muscle to grab enough of the market to unload the necessary inventory. They may offer a better quality product in terms of build, but even after streamlining the manufacturing process, it still costs more.Mondial accepted that fact, but chose to skirt the border with the Acurus ACT-3. At $1,799 retail, it fills a n0tch above the typical mass market stuff, yet ducks the $2,500-and-up benchmarks that typically swim gill to gill with the biggest fish around (such as the Yamaha DSP-A1, the B&K Ref 20, Lexicon DC-1, and Meridian 565.) Plus, the ACT-3 brings a pedigree to the table. Acurus has previously earned accolades for their power amplifiers, as well as the predecessor of the ACT-3, the ACT-1. Buyer prepays plus shipping.

The Acurus 200X3 is a high end amplifier of exceptional smoothness. This smoothness is not achieved at the expense of detail. The ability to retrieve detail found within the original source has actually been improved. The Symmetrical Channel Configuration reduces harshness and inter-channel anomalies allowing for the increased smoothness and detail. The glass epoxy circuit board employed are found in medical and military equipment. The amplifier has heavy gauge copper wire toroidal transformers for continuous power into lower impedance real world speaker loads. The power reserves are immense to the extent that even after the amplifier is turned off, the music keeps on playing for a few minutes until it slowly fusses out. The amplifier has efficient thermal management and can be played for hours without getting hot. The Acurus 200X3 will not be able to drive very low efficiency speakers such as ribbon/planar type speakers which has impedance of 2 ohms or lower. However, it can drive most 8 ohms speakers with ease and plenty of 4 ohms speakers easily. The sonic qualities of the Acurus 200X3 are characterized as revealing, and forward but not grainy. The bass is powerful and tight, the midrange is smooth and warm, and the highs are appealing and sweet. It is able to play with the most subtle delicacy at a moment, then play at shattering volumes with no strain, and produces a wide and terrific soundstage. The vocals are slightly warm, but when listening to brass instruments it can sometimes become harsh and fatiguing. Drums seem to have vigor and comes alive with the music and cymbal crashes resonate with crispness. The Acurus 200X3 is a capable preamplifier of superb build quality and delivers high end experience time to time without fail.
