From Charlie Porritt, CEO, of Russound: “The new amplifiers embody Russound’s commitment to refresh, renew, and reinvent…We took the best of our previous models’ sound signature, increased the power per channel, updated the industrial design, and even managed to make them lighter and more compact than their predecessors…The new digital amplifiers were created in part by our dealers, who are essential to the development of every product we sell. Their input helped guide us from the initial R&D process right through the final industrial design.
