The Emitter II Exclusive has always been regarded as the best sounding integrated amp in the World. The Emitter II Exclusive you see here is ASR’s 2013 version Blue. it is essentially a battery powered integrated amp (some have come to call it a power amp with volume control and input selection) which will offer 100 hours of battery powered amplification when fully charged. There is a “battery pack” for each channel and another “battery pack” to power the inputs for the ultimate in transparency and neutrality. So in total, you are looking at a four chassis amplification. Power output from the Emitter II Exclusive starts at 250W per channel in 8 ohms and rises up to 1,400W in 1 ohms.nnListening to the ASR is like breathing in the freshest of air. There was this total “emptiness” in coloration. Music was delivered with a purity that is unheard of from any integrated amp we have experienced with and is comparable to some of the best pre/power combos out there. And even in that respect, we are talking about pre/power combos that are in the $50,000 or more category. An excellent source unit and a top notch pair of speakers are MANDATORY to full enjoy the prowess of the ASR. The Emitter II Exclusive does take up a good deal of real estate in your room and will require some “strategic” placement of components to reduce cable length running to and from it. Recommended placement for all four units is straight out level or stack the battery pack up like a “tower” is space is a constraint. Laying them out straight however makes it easier to connect the thick gauge power cables between the battery units and the main unit. Cosmetically, the unit looks really good. A few minor scuff marks that are very typical from use but nothing major. We have the original boxes, manual, all the necessary power cables and remote. Collectively, the whole system weighs just slightly above 300 lbs and ships in 4 boxes .On Oct-07-23 at 05:37:55 PDT, seller added the following information: Krell, McIntosh, gryphon, Berning, emmlabs, Vitus, klipsch, Jbl, ps audio

For sale is the original ASR Emitter in very good condition for the age. The early examples of Emitter suffered from some teething problems - my example had them all ironed out. It was virtually re-built in 2012, with all new power transistors, new quality caps on PCBs, speaker protection circuits added and a few fuses addedd for extra protection. Last year it received a brand new remote controlled stepped ladder volume controller (very precise, the best type of volume controller), power on/off rotating switch replaced and all caps fitted in the power supply replaced. I am still not sure if I want to par with this amp, it is that good. Please contact me if you have any questions or before the purchase - due to nature of my work, I may not be able to meet you within a week.Thank you fur understanding. It is for collection only but may deliver in person - please ask.

ASR EMITTER 1 Plus Amplifier, no remote, original packaging, instruction manual in German. Originally $10,000 From 6 Moons.com review: During my time with the Emitter I, several traits stood out: terrific see-through transparency; anincrediblylow noise floor that allowed for remarkable resolution of low-level detail; and a lovely sense of dynamic ease and outstanding spatial resolution. With the Emitters excellent transparency, it was difficult to pin down a sonic character. There was no sign of any solid-state grain, hardness, edge, haze or any sense of artifice - nor was it fat, bloated, slow or euphonic. I didnt find the Emitter at all warm or soft but it didnt sound cool or clinical either. Nothing came across as underlined or etched. It managed to walk that fine line between the best of solid-state and tubes without leaning into either camp. Balanced, neutral and accurate to the source were words that also frequently came to mind. The Emitter I was the Switzerland of amplifiers. The Emitter offered a stunningly low noise floor where all manners of nuances and dynamic inflections were easily apparent. Frankly, I wasnt expecting my Audiomat Opra Rfrences superior noise floor to be bettered but the Emitter did just that. I recognize that this remarkable sounding and magnificently appointed amp is one of the finest I have ever heard and laid eyes on. It is therefore truly worthy of our Blue Moon Award. If you are wired differently than I and have ten grand burning a hole in your wallet, this could be your dream amp. I strongly recommend wrapping your ears around one if you are looking at amplification in this price range. Even if you cannot afford it, the ASR Emitter I will give you a glimpse of whats possible. Description: The Emitter I is a two-chassis affair with the separate power supply connected to the amp with a 2m double-shielded cable terminated at the power supply end with a humongous Harting industrial connector. The power cord feeding the power supply from the wall outlet is ASRs 1.5m Magic Cord, which also appears to be a sturdy heavily shielded cable with a 20A IEC at the power supply side. The 71lbs metal-encased power supply sports three Philbert-Mantelschnitt transformers, two of which are massive 500VA monsters. ASR claims that the separate power supply will keep electro-magnetic fields and transformer vibration away from the main control unit. The power supply provides eight different voltages rectified and buffered separately to supply the amps various stages. The Emitter I has a total buffering capacity (including the PSU) of 373,000uF and outputs 140 watts of Class A/B power into 8 Ohms via six Toshiba MOSFETs per channel. Comprehensive protection circuits guard against overload, override, short circuit, runaway temperature and DC voltage. These circuits are not in series with the signal path and should not adversely affect the amps sonic performance. A large orange LED display and three chromium knobs dominate the front panel. The large center knob adjusts volume via 32 stepped relays in 1dB increments over a total range of 75dB. Unlike conventional volume pots, the music signal does not pass through the step relay control. ASR claims its volume control has no sonic impact upon the amps performance regardless of setting. Channel-to-channel deviation is less than 0.1dB at all settings. Measurements: The main amp measures 16W x 7H x 16D and weighs 42 pounds (19kg). The standalone power supply, which contains two 500VA transformers and provides a whopping 406,440F of capacitance, measures 18W x 6.3H x 12.5D and weighs a hefty 68 pounds (31kg). The Emitter I is claimed to output 140Wpc into 8 ohms or 250Wpc into 4 ohms, so it should have no trouble powering most speakers. The frequency response is stated as 1Hz-100kHz, +/-1dB, and 20Hz-20kHz, +/-0.2dB, with a maximum distortion of 0.01% and a damping factor of over 600.
