    I see it's switchable, so I'm thinking when you jump to 220v the weight doubles to 20lbs.

    I bought the Pyle Pro stereo version of something similar to power our in-ceiling speakers at work, and it works great for the price!

    Oh, Listen here mister. We got no way of understandin' this world. But we got as much sense of this bird flyin in the sky. Now there is a lot that bird don't know, but it don't change the fact that the world is happening to him all the same. What I am tryin to say is, is that the course of your life, well its changing, and you don't even see it- Forest Bondurant

    and it only weighs 10 lbs! important when you're referencing fm....i don't think it's false advertising: it does say 1200 watts peak....peak is key...for maybe a nanosecond @ 92% distortion..great with those white van digital ready speakers
