Audiosource Amps?

Hey guys. Does anyone have any experience with these Amps? I am most curious about the Amp2. I'm thinking of getting an HK AVR 320 or 520 and using this with the pre-outs for the mains for 2 channel listening and also to run my outdoor speaks. I will probably go ahead and buy 2 so I can use the other for 7.1. I currently have an HK AVR 120 and just need more power...and these things look really groovy (match needle outputs meters)
Thanks!

Not a bad idea.......AudioSource makes decent, inexpensive amps. I'd also consider an AMC amp as well.
V/U's are the shee-at.

I have two of the Amp One/A's. They are both bridged for the 200 watt output for each amp in 8 ohms. While I can't say exactly what the difference is between the One/A and the Amp Two, besides the level meters and the auto on/off feature, they do have the exact same power rating.
I happen to like them, low profile, clean face, decent power and they don't bust your budget.
If you do get one, either the One/A or Amp Two, make sure you have plenty of ventilation. Both of mine are set up in open areas, not stacked, and they get plenty warm.
I purchased mine from audiovideoshopper.com for $180 each and was very pleased with the way they handled the transaction and packaging. They also sell AMC.
Happy purchasing!!Remember, when you're running from something, you're running to something...-me -
Cool...and thanks for the heads up about stacking...I'll have to figure out how I can avoid that...might be time for some new furniture.system 1:
