The P-1000 MkII Booster technology enhances the unit to get the best out of speakers that require power supplies. It provides greater energy in a very specific range of low frequencies. The Booster is completely by-passed when set to OFF.
The P-1000 MkII is easy to control with its large color display showing all functions. All the settings can be found on the screen allowing quick and precise fine adjustments, whether using the Single-Knob-Control rotary joggle conveniently placed on the front panel or the elegant IR remote control.
To enhance the performance of the P-1000 MkII even further, it can be optionally matched with the external super inductive power supply PSU-1250/1000 and the valve output stage TUBE-1012/1006.
