Designed and manufactured in McLaren's TAG Electronics Formula One manufacturing facility. Possibly the greatest home theater amplifier ever made. 3 separate amplifiers in a single chassis. Remote controlled.

Note: This unit was a display model and comes with no original box or accessories. The remote is missing the battery cover. It is in excellent shape with only minor abrasions to the cover. It was an 100x5R converted to a 100x3R and displays some evidence of this (see photos). This unit has been fully tested and works perfectly. This unit is being sold AS IS and no warranty is offered or implied.
The 100x3R: Setting a new standard for multi-channel amplification

The 100x3R is a remote controlled, multi-room capable, powerful, high-performance three-channel power amplifier with an output of outstanding clarity and purity. It has been designed from the outset as the perfect amplification partner to our audio-visual processor AV32R and our dvd player DVD32R, delivering the drama and excitement of home cinema without compromising its truly audiophile sound quality. It is suitable both for the most demanding home cinema and two channel stereo set-ups.

The 100x3R consists of up to three identical modules contained in a single compact enclosure. Each channel is a complete, self-contained power amplifier module - a true monobloc. Audiophiles have long known that for the ultimate in reproduction it is necessary to have so-called "monobloc" power amplifiers - independent amplifiers for each channel in a system. The independence of monobloc amplifiers is their great strength - none of the channels is affected by what is happening on any of the others - allowing movies and music alike to be reproduced with their true impact. In conventional stereo or multi-channel amplifiers the channels share a single transformer and often a single power supply. Much can be achieved with such amplifiers, but sadly they simply cannot match their monobloc brethren. The space and cost penalties of having five separate monobloc amplifiers in five separate boxes are, for many enthusiasts, outweighed by the improvements in the listening experience. Now, the quality the enthusiasts crave can be obtained without the penalties, thanks to the 100x3R.

TAG McLaren Audio's new 100x3R amplifier provides three true monobloc amplifier modules in a single chassis. Each power amplifier module contains its own mains transformer, bridge rectifier and energy storage capacitors, so it can drive each loudspeaker totally independently of any of the other four modules. This means that if a movie soundtrack places heavy power demands on your main front speakers, the other speakers in your full surround set-up will not suffer. The result is uncompromised sound quality, stylishly packaged.
