Onkyo Multiac 60AU Questions

markshan

Sir Thrift a Lot
I bought this at a yard sale for five bucks. The guy said he bought it in Japan when stationed there years ago. It was very clean for it's age and price, so I bought it without really looking it over closely.

Once I got it home, I saw that it has an unusual (to me anyway) amplifier configuration. There appear to be three amps per channel, internally crossed over. I would really like to know some info on the unit. Specifically what are the power rating of each of the six (three per channel) amps and what are the frequencies and slopes of each of the crossovers?

I can't find any info on this intriguing piece anywhere.

(Please forgive my Fisher-Price digital camera.)

I once had one but never had any info on it. Onkyo made "Multiac" speakers as part of the system and I think there is a small amount of info on them if you do a search.

It does have the distinction of being the only piece of equipment to proclaim itself a "Multi Channel Stereo Amplifier" on the front panel and a "Multi channel system stereo receiver" on the back panel!

I think this is a smaller version, only 4 amps.

I possess 1 of these amplifiers. The frequency division (to woofer-mid-tweeter) is made by the proper amplifier. You have that to have columns of sound with the 3 altifalantes with crossovers off. The neutral one is common to all the altifalantes. Mine it is connected to a Kef Q55. But not valley the work! Here it goes 2 images to prove.

It forgives the English

Compliments.
