I saw this ad in C/L just cruising other locales just to see what's out there. Besides being upside down it's being called an Amcron. To me it looks like a Crown DC-300, w/ a Crown logo in the picture. Has anyone ever see such an amp or some off-shoot of the Crown company ?

appears to be all Crown, all the time.

EDIT: looks like maybe a change in brand name for Canada (due to a trademark issue with "Crown" there)?

I do know in the 1960s and even early 1970s, there were some fairly low-end Japanese electronics (radios, tape recorders, and some components) sold in the US branded "Crown Japan". A far cry from the "built missionary tough" Crown components of Elkhart, Indiana.
