I have to rate this one at 8/10 because of mark on front faceplate.

This is a great amp...I had three !
I have a downloaded copy of the manual, no original box but will pack correctly as always...

Continuous Power ...120w @ 8 ohms
DIN Power..............220w @ 4 ohms
Bridged Power.........360w @ 8 ohms

This is a good amp for your 4 ohm speaks ...not sure what DIN power is , but trust me...this is a great center channel amp (bridged), or even better if you have two bridged

My picture taking ability blows, but here are some pic`s

**SOLD**

for an extra 25 bucks (basically shipping) I`ll through in a brand new , never used top cover....or sell it seperately

I`ll eat the paypal fee`s on this one

going up on the Gon shortly....I`m on a mission !

    Hey Dog, don't know why you say it is not good for 4 ohm speaks, cause it sounds great with my 9's. It opened a whole new world for me going from avr to this thing.

    I had used the RC-980BX and RB-980BX combination for the LSi9s for 3.5 years. I now use the Rotel pair with Dynaudio Contour S1.4 speakers. Have had no problems and it sounds great.

    This diehard Polkie has the sickness yet maintains a clear head of what he wants to achieve the next level. We listened to tunes on his glass Cary and Jolida toys. Awesome sounding gear that nearly had me in tears. After scaling a razor fence and disabling an alarm we made it to the Bearcave. He fired up a sweet Parasound rig which he listens to while working on his bike!

    It was great seeing you again. Shack Daddy will get a good bear report.
