Thanks

    Imho within its class it a very good amp ( i like parasound equip
    ) . I would offer a hundo and settle on the middle if u really want it. However for about 300.00you could more than double your value! Andove up to a 1200 Maybe. But what are u going to use it for?

    I was think about using it bridged for a passive subwoofer project
    But who knows I am always thinking of hair-brained stuff
    Especially when I troll craigs list

    For a sub project I would pass on the Parasound and try a pro amp.

    Not a lot of power for a sub.
