Product Description

The Amp 5.3 is a fully featured, high current mono power amp. With high quality components housed within heavy-gauge steel, this amplifier sounds as impressive as it looks. Fan cooled, all-discreet output devices stay cool while driving even the most demanding speakers. Large toroidal power supplies and oversized capacitors ensure sufficient headroom while staying stable into loads as low as two ohms. And despite its modular design, it can also be used as powerful individual amps. This amplifier can even be mounted in an optional rack mountable chassis. It also provides a low cut switch, which filters out Bass below 100Hz with a 12dB slope. It also features front panel status LEDs, Volume, Low Cut and Phase Control.

Amazon.com Product Description

The Amp 5.3 stereo power amplifier from AudioSource is a very powerful and flexible addition to your home theater. You can use this monoblock amplifier by itself, or combine it with a series of Amp 5.3 units to power an entire home theater and drive speakers throughout your home.

The clean design houses a high-power amplifier that is easy to set up and easy to expand as your home theater grows. AudioSource amplifiers deliver accurate, rich sound, combining high sound-pressure levels and a clear reproduction of even the most subtle details of sound. The Amp 5.3 provides up to 250 watts per channel with total harmonic distortion of less than 0.1%.

Depending on your needs, you can place and replace several monoblock amps in one system. It's easy to connect power sources, audio and video inputs, and speaker outputs with the expansion-friendly design. Balanced inputs allow the Amp 5.3 to connect to audio and video components with XLR outputs, and unbalanced inputs handle RCA output connections.

The front panel of the amplifier has a simple array of LED displays that signal both operating status and potential warnings. A protect warning helps you avoid overloading or overheating the unit, and it will reset the unit to the initial settings once the problem is addressed.

A phase control button allows you to switch the polarity of the speaker outputs to compensate for occasions where speakers are out of phase and sounding hollow. A low-cut control feature filters the lowest frequencies from your small speakers, preventing distortion and protecting the speakers.

In the heart of the amp, the torodial power transformer generates a big sound while reducing distortion by shielding the sound from stray magnetic fields. With the Amp 5.3, you can control the volume directly on the unit, or by adjusting the signal source component (such as your receiver, preamp, etc.)

Sleak and powerful.......2007-04-03

I purchased two of these amps to power my pair of MTX speakers. The result is amazing. My power is double what my receiver was putting out and the distortion is even less. In other words, extremely crisp, clear, loud sound. The sleek design of the amp makes it even better, with no big knobs or bright flashing lights. The seting up was very easy as well with clear labels for all the inputs and outputs. For anyone who wants to boost the power of their system and not worry about all the technical aspects, this type of amp is for you.

Good value for a component system.......2005-11-28

I bought two of these to power my Bose 901 Series VI speakers. The pre-amp is also an Audiosource item. Although these amps are rated the same as the Kenwood system they replace, the sound is cleaner and much louder than before. They are, however, absent of a few features many have come to expect from audio products of late, including headphone jacks (each amp has one 1/4" mono headphone jack) remote control, and surround sound.

In my situation, these amps are perfect. I wanted another amplifier/pre-amp setup, but I didn't want to get rid of my speakers, which require a processor loop. I didn't need a tuner, and I have plenty of room for amplifiers and speakers. As a result of buying this set-up, I now have what must surely be the most powerful and best-sounding iPod dock in the world. If you are willing to stand up to adjust the sound or turn the equipment on or off, you'll likely be pleased with a couple of Audiosource amplifiers.

Slow monitor, high price, small screen.......2007-08-22

all of you mind that i'm talking abot all of this with the high price in mind.

the response time is 14ms.... for a cheap 200 monitor ive seen it for around 5ms

contrast sucks, most good monitors have ATLEAST 500:1 contrast, for this price you do not want this contrast, lower contrast means worse picture quality.

the screen is tiny, who these days has a 17 inch screen,plus its not widescreen! If you like this brand acer theres like a 22 inch widescreen with better specs and even cheaper than this.

i personally have a samsung 22 inch widescreen with 2ms response and 1000:1 contrast (it says 3000:1 but its a different contrast measure)

this monitor was the beast deal ever, for only 30 bucks more than this low quality high priced monitor.

just think about it,

great for the price.......2007-06-20

Has worked perfectly for me. Highly recommended.

not as good as my CRT.......2006-06-29

I was given this monitor at work to replace a Viewsonic CRT, and I have to say it's not as good.

My biggest problem is that it's too bright. I work in a dim environment, and when I turned the monitor down to brightness=0, my eyes still feel fatigue.

I also have been unable to adjust the gamma because I can't turn down the brightness enough.

Further, when you move your head from side to side, parts of the screen look more and less yellow. (this doesn't happen on other LCDs/laptops I've used).

Maybe on a budget this is great, but since I stare at the screen for 9 hours a day, and I'm probably hypercritical, this LCD is not the best choice.

When I finally break down and buy an LCD for myself, at home, I know I will have to test it in person.

Just can't find that much to complain about...........2005-12-13

I looked through literally hundreds of reviews and chose this one because: I didn't want to spend $400 or more for a monitor that had vibrant color and excellent clarity with a flat screen. Reviews I found elsewhere for this FDS were more optimistic.

Many of the monitors available today are made by companies I have never heard of. Years ago I owned an Acer computer that functioned just fine for a long time. I ordered this screen from Amazon via Tigerdirect.

The packaging was excellent - sturdy and constructed to take shipping shock very well. Installation took about 20 minutes. My hands are small - fitting the plug into the socket in a parallel position to the base wasn't hard for me. I do agree that part of the design is dumb (therefore 4 stars).

This screen is used on my computer with business software, general internet use and desktop publishing -- not for gaming. I've used it since May'05 and there are no dead pixels.

I am an experienced photographer so color and clarity are important. The only picture I've seen that is truly a dissapoint is one of a cave in Utah where there are many hues of red and yellow. For some reason the pixels in that picture distort into tiny blocks of color. In every other case the color and clarity have met my standards. I have a $400 dell display used for gaming on my other computer. I can't see any obvious difference in visual quality when using the same software on either computer for non-gaming purposes.

Your paying to much for this!!.......2005-11-15

I myself am a computer Geek I purchased 2 of the ACER 1914b's and plugged them up to a NVIDA 256MB 5200 chaintech videocard for Photoshop work. They are great. They play games great with an average of 12-16ms access times on them. I am sorry my review doesn't actually go over the AL1714b. . . but the price they're offering for the 1714 is NUTS!!! Happy shopping!!

Audiovox for presentation great!.......2007-02-20

This is used as a video presentation monitor and it works great - can switch from 16 to 4 ratio which I need - picture resolution is perfect. Have never used for TV - so don't know about reception.

don't let the low price deter you from buying.......2005-08-20

bought this tv for our guest room, but have several other much higher priced hdtv in our other rooms, can honestly say that the picture is just as good on the audiovox as the others, just make sure you have the right signal to get the best picture (hd). its so amazing how cheap these hdtvs are getting.

totaly awesome.......2006-10-01

I got these speakers 2 years ago, and theve worked great with heavy use and in adverse conditions (including iraq) I love them, the only flaw is the lack of dual voltage capability (how i lost mine), and thats not an issue for 80% of you out there...

Best Speakers Ever!!!.......2006-08-05

The first time I got these speakers, they sounded excellent 4 surround speakers, 1 center speaker, 1 big subwoofer with a tunning box to control volume, surround, center, and bass. The base is much powerful than the vs2121 subwoofer and is alot bigger than the other one. If you are looking for speakers these are them. But one thing you need to get the full experience of these speakers is a sound card. i suggest you but the Aopen Cobra AW 850 6 channel sound card, which is sold on amazon.com only $14. Also on the back of the control pod is a 2/4 and 6 channel switch, so get a 6 channel sound card like the one i metioned before and experience the full effect of the 5.1 surround sound speaaker set. Good Price, for 1 big bass, control pod, and 5 speakers and another cord that comes with the set is a converter so you can hook the green cord into the rca cable. Dont buy the vs2121 which are 2 speakers, 1 sub, and a conrtol pod (depends on which set you get) because they are only about $20 cheaper than this set so but this altec lansing 5.1 multimedia speaker set with a Aopen Cobra AW850 6 channel sound card. You will Love It!!!
