Acurus A150 Power Amplifier (Used) Sold Fullsi11Pristine Acurus A150 2 channel amplifier – 150 Watts rms of super clean power with very high dynamics and in virtually perfect condition - Made in the USA!



The Acurus brand is part of Mondial, which also manufactures the acclaimed Aragon amplifiers. Both Aragon and Acurus amps are coveted by audiophiles everywhere for both their phenomenal performance and value. 

The A-150 is the more desireable first generation Acurus amplifier. If you have listened to the A150 compared to the A200, there is a sonic difference.  Mondial has since been acquired by Klipsch in what can only be considered as a very smart move by Klipsch, and is also good news for owners of these great amps as Klipsch / Mondial still provides service, and the manual and other info is available for download on the Klipsch site: 


When people hear an Acurus amp, the typical response after “wow” is that it is a crisp, clean, articulate and detailed with a lot of very tightly controlled transient punch. If you have speakers that need that a push to make them sing, this is a superb solution. At this price you are getting a true high fidelity audiophile performance at the new cost of low level receivers and the used price of mid-fi amplifiers like SAE, Denon, Yamaha, Hafler, etc. that don't have either the quality or power that this amp has in abundance. Authority and finesse.

This amp works flawlessly, and has never given any problems. All inputs and outputs work fine.


Here’s info from Acurus / Klipsch: 



Classic Acurus product:


  • 2-Channel Output

  • Engineered for Both Music and Movies

  • Symmetrical Channel Configuration

  • Real Glass Epoxy Circuit Boards

  • Heavy Gauge Copper Wire Wound Toroidal Transformers

  • Over 20% More Power

  • Made in the USA



As with all things purchased, you reach a point where quality and price intersect. Spend more and you don't gain in quality. Spend less and you lose a significant amount in quality. For over a decade Mondial Designs has been internationally recognized as the company that creates the value in audio components. We have a clear understanding of how to engineer and manufacture audio components at the point where the highest quality and lowest price intersect. 

The obvious proof of Acurus' value is that these components are fully handcrafted in America for the price of mass produced foreign product. In many cases, Acurus is actually lower priced than the lower quality imports.

Engineered for Both Music and Movies
Acurus amplifiers are engineered with the understanding that they will need to be exceptional with two-channel music reproduction as well as with home theater.


Symmetrical Channel Configuration
This second generation of Acurus product has evolved into high-end amplifiers of exceptional smoothness. This smoothness was not achieved at the expense of detail. The ability to retrieve detail found within the original source has actually been improved. Our new Symmetrical Channel Configuration reduces harshness and inter-channel anomalies allowing for the increased smoothness and detail.

Made in the USA
All Acurus amplifiers are made in the USA.

Real Glass Epoxy Circuit Boards
Unlike many other amplifiers in the Acurus price range, all of our amplifiers employ glass epoxy circuit boards. Is glass epoxy really superior to the paper circuit boards found in the mass-produced product? Absolutely. That's why all medical and military equipment specifies glass epoxy.

Heavy Gauge Copper Wire Wound Toroidal Transformers
Instead of El or thin-gauge toroid transformers, all Acurus amplifiers have very heavy gauge copper wire toroidal transformers for continuous power into lower impedance, real world speaker loads. Some amplifiers, selling at over twice the price of Acurus, use only small transformers found in noisy car stereo power supplies in the name of efficiency.
