Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
          On October 25, 2007, Peter G. Bünger resigned as a director of Emerson Radio Corp. (the “Company”), effective as of the date of the Company’s next Annual Shareholders Meeting, and advised the Company that he would not stand for reelection as a director at such meeting. Mr. Bünger’s reasons for such actions are outlined in a letter submitted by him to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Letter”).
          The Company believes that the circumstances referred to by Mr. Bünger in the Letter relate to certain related party transactions between the Company and its controlling shareholder, The Grande Holdings Limited. These transactions were previously disclosed in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the most recent of which are the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 29, 2007 and amended on July 31, 2007, and the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 2007, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 14, 2007.
          A copy of the Letter submitted by Mr. Bünger is being filed as Exhibit 17.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. A copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K has been submitted to Mr. Bünger in accordance with the applicable rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Exhibit 17.1
To all Board Members of Emerson Radio Corp. and John Schupper
Due to unprofessional conduct together with high-handed actions in addition to irregularities committed by Grande representatives and directors since take-over of the management of Emerson, the future of Emerson is in danger and the rights of the minority shareholders are jeopardized. Specifically, irregular related party transactions were Grande withdrew as much as approximately 50 million dollars, without paper work or notes or securities or advice to the Board of Directors.
The confidential preliminary report by an independent investigator confirmed the above. The unethical and uneconomical behavior in the management of Emerson can not be accepted any longer.
Due to this attitude I lost faith in the capabilities of Grande and its representatives to run Emerson on a sound business practice.
Under these conditions there can not be a useful contribution on my part for the progress of Emerson as an independent director.
The content of this letter should be incorporated in a form 8 K to be released by the company.
Therefore, I will not stand for reelection and resign effective at the next annual meeting of shareholders.
