Hello fellow Club Polk members and good morning to you. While I do know that something like this is beyond the "typical" 2-channel rig here at Club Polk, there are a handful of us here that might find this of interest. As some of us know, the power to a rig is one of the most important things we should concentrate on when assembling a top notch system. This, if you are in the market for such a thing, should be something worthy of consideration.

    It's a little higher, Tony. They have a couple of models that start out at 4K. This one last year retailed at 8 but demand has jumped up so the retail slid up to 9. There was a used one recently on the 'gone for 7.2K. Here's some informative links to the other models;

    Well, I guess if you could afford the gear that dude had in the video, it would be an easy purchase then. Personally, I don't see where the price reflects whats in the box. Hospital grade receptacles.....come on man, not exactly expensive are they.
