First we have the front



Side in piano black finish



Rear of the chassis with no amps installed.



Some pics of the emp-300 monoblocks that will slide into the chassis to drive the m80's. I've placed a standard contractor utility knife for size comparison.







Installing of the amps....

Wow, seeing that beast in relation to other things leaves an impression. If that works well for you, I'll have to go the same route. It seems like a really good deal.

Very nice indeed, I like the look.

My backround is in computer networks and telecommunications so I love anything that is rack mounted. Hope it sounds as great as it looks.

Especially women, uh, I mean... even an old Cisco 2509 router that needs a transceiver to connect to anything (modernly) useful?

That is my HTPC I built, details on my website.

Randy, your site seems to be in need of an update.
Posted By: SirQuack Re: Pics of my Emotiva MPS-1 amp. - 01/16/07 04:35 AM
Dude, you know how busy I've been lately.

I just had a nice talk today with one of the engineer/designers of the Emotiva amps, I think we will be getting somewhere soon, keep ya posted.

I know, I know, pictures of the new Ebony speakers and an update of the website. Just not enough time it seems.

Thanks for posting the pictures. I've been looking at the BPA-1 150watt amp thinking I could use 3 to power my mains and center. I could then let the old HK power the surrounds.

It's even more temping now that the price has been reduced down to $159US.

Wait... what's that? Where? Cheap amp? Ooooooh....
Posted By: SirQuack Re: Pics of my Emotiva MPS-1 amp. - 01/17/07 06:00 PM
Yep the BPA 1 is very possible and performs well I've heard. Some people purchase 7 or more of them and stack them in a triangle. ;0
Posted By: Ken.C Re: Pics of my Emotiva MPS-1 amp. - 01/17/07 06:02 PM
Eh, about the same power rating as my H/K, and it doesn't look like it's a good idea to bridge into 4 ohms, at least reading the back panel of the thing. Oh well. Can't get something for nothing, I suppose...
Posted By: oldskoolboarder Re: Pics of my Emotiva MPS-1 amp. - 01/17/07 10:00 PM
Wow. That's is VERY nice.
Posted By: Wid Re: Pics of my Emotiva MPS-1 amp. - 01/17/07 10:09 PM

I don't know of any home amp that can handle a 4 ohm load while being bridged.
Posted By: Ken.C Re: Pics of my Emotiva MPS-1 amp. - 01/17/07 10:30 PM
Well, what's the point then?
Posted By: Wid Re: Pics of my Emotiva MPS-1 amp. - 01/17/07 10:39 PM

None if you have 4 ohm speakers.

Oooooh, pretty. Sweet amp!
...checking their website....
I like the look of their stuff. You had better give us a detailed review of that bad boy!
