oh hell that would solve some of my problems of trying to hide the two elite amps to drive the 3 ways.
Anyone want a pair of unused elites still in the box?

PUR Signal Input Circuitry: The input section directly feeds the audio stage of the amplifier to maintain the purest audio signal possible. Crossover filters, bass boosts, excessive op-amps and other circuit items that add noise and distortion are completely absent from the signal path.
JET Thermal System: The chambered heat sink is kept cool by two variable speeds working in a push/pull configuration. JET thermal system cuts operating temperatures in half compared to most traditional heatsink designs.
HYBRID Audio Design: Channels 1 through 8 are Audiophile turned Triple Darlington class AB design that feature Sanken Output devices. Channel 9 is an ultra efficient Class D subwoofer channel.
F e a t u r e s :
• Class AB and D Hybrid Audiophile Audio Design
• Overbuilt Quad Unregulated Power Supplies
• Handwound Power Supply Transformers
• Triple Darlington Output Section featuring Sanken Output Devices
• PUR Technology Direct Signal Input Circuitry
• JET Fan Cooled Chambered Heatsink Thermal System
• Gold Plated 3 Ounce Circuit Board
• Dual 1/0 Power Input Terminals
• Panel Mounted RCAs
• High Temperature Plexiglass Cover
• Audio Precision Quality Control Verification
• Power Output Birth Certificate
• Limited Production Run
• 30.0” L x 9.85” W x 2.68” H
Crossovers, bass boost, etc. None, nada, zip, zero...

too bad it's an LE...I'd freaking LOOVE a pair of them, and I've already got plenty of signal processing. BTW: they going to come with birth sheets? How many amps of current draw at rated non-loaded down levels playing music/pink noise?? Anyone need a kidney?

Good eyes ttocs! I think my brain comprehension went out of the window at staggered 2/4/2 8 channel plus beefy sub channel. Wonder how much power it really makes, and how much power supply is available, and what that structure is. One supply for all 8 with three different output voltage winding sets plus one for the sub channel? Independent supplies for 1/2, 3/4/5/6, 7/8, 9? Etc. love to see me some high quality board pics. Especially since we won't have a crazy input signal crossover board like the 900.7.

MSRP is targeted around $2500 or so, but not set in stone yet.
Amplifier has four separate power supplies.
More news to follow.

the more I think about it the more I like it. IF anyone is interested in a fair price on an elite.5 and .2 never used still with the original boxes pm me and I might upgrade.

well I would like to say that the lineup is nice. the new elite subs and titanium subs will be more reliable.
the zen 9 was a beautiful amp and that would be so nice to have
but what I really am interested in was the processor that was in Jeffs camry, and that 3 way component set. talk about an aggressive set. van halen was like OMG!
I will keep an eye and ear out for that. BTW guys the new elite subs sounded pretty good in 1.8 sealed * both of them were in 1.8.
thank jeff for allowing me to sit in your ride. I know you were pressed for time but again Thanks!

I think I have made my mind up to go with one, just need to move the elites. How many inputs does it have/take and any idea when they will be available?
