    When you want to Go Large, I can do 1200 for my silver 9t mono blocks.

    This certainly warrants consideration:)
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    Thx Reel.
    Zombie, i saw that...I lost out on a parasound 1200 and Rotel 990 and BK 2140 by a few hours each. Went to hit buy it nows after **** around for a few days and just missed them. Missed the B&K from Doro which should have been mine had I not screwed around for a week lol.

    I was hoping that another 990bx or 1200 would come up around the same price (350). After reading your reviews of the 980, I am giving it serious consideration along with the Parasound HCA 1000a that seem to come up more often.

    That 980BX looks pristine at that. I really don't think you can go wrong at that pricepoint, though they have shown up for lower (just maybe not in that condition with orig. manual/box).

    same pricepoint, more watts (maybe a tad less finesse)
