CR Developments Romulus P1

Remus was a natural development in the CR product range, offering more power and larger dynamic range than the smaller Romulus amplifier. Remus is configured as a power amplifier with no switchable inputs and is designed to match directly with our Carmenta or Kastor pre-amplifiers, although it will work well with any high quality pre-amplifier. Although Remus has a dynamic quality, it retains the smooth response inherent in all CR amplifiers, reproducing the gentlest passage or most strident orchestration with equal ease. Over-engineered internal electronics leave the amplifier unstressed even under the most demanding conditions. No expense was spared where component selection was concerned, with the best signal components being used throughout all critical paths leaving the audio untarnished and full of its original vitality. Transformers, always a key component, are exceptionally large. Less conservative designers would probably use them in 200 Watt output stages! With so much power in hand, loudspeaker selection is not critical and can match the listener's taste without worrying about sound level and dynamics.
