Go Bob,,, I wonder if those would adequately power a pair of Amazings?JC approves....he told me so. (F-1 nut)

Yes, they will. Gracefully, might I add. Lots of heat and they are quite big mind you.~ In search of accurate reproduction of music. Real sound is my reference and while perfection may not be attainable? If I chase it, I might just catch excellence. ~

One of these amps will be in a rig or three for evaluation at this year's Carverfest which Bob will be attending. Good times, man.~ In search of accurate reproduction of music. Real sound is my reference and while perfection may not be attainable? If I chase it, I might just catch excellence. ~ -

Why? Just because I think they are ugly; don't like the color, and that frontplate looks cheap, IMO of course. I bet they do sound beautiful, but they are horrible

I'll let you know what they sound like. About 40 some-odd folks might do the same. Preliminary reports from the cat that bought the first pair? Nothing but stellar reviews.
F1's ears will hear them as well as a few Polk forum members, so I'm quite sure that you will hear some feedback on them.

Yep, I'll get to see what these babies will do for my Plats. I'm betting it will sound mighty good.
