    Not in, just wanted to comment. These old Haflers are very good amps. I have a XL600, has a 1 ohm rating. Somewhat of a beast it is, and it is a keeper.

    Very nice Karma.

    Some pics.

    I've seen upgrade kits for this that seem reasonable and was going to do that at one time but as usual, I got distracted :D

    Sorry all, I know the pics aren't that pleasing. It just needs a lil love.

    Thanks Doc,

    It, along with other stuff was being stored in an unfinished 2nd level storage room. The room did have heating & cooling duct work at least.
