    Probably not. It's a not a home audio amp & it's got a fan in it which is going to annoy you. I'd get an Adcom 535 instead. More wattage, no fan, about the same price.

    Where did you get that it has a fan in it?
    From the product page:

    Cool, quiet operation.

    Designed for studio use, each RA series amp incorporates advanced convection cooling for heat dissipation. The result is long, stable operation unaffected by heat-related complications, without the added distraction and annoyance of fan cooling. And eliminating the danger of losing hard-to- hear details due to noisy amp performance.

    I think you're right Less, I kinda remember in the Manny's(NYC) catalogs I used to get, they advertized the Alesis amps as a being good amp for a recording studio. And of course the had the Alesis Monitors also.

    Looks like a Behringer A500.

    I love how music can brighten up a bad day.

    I've heard an older Alesis amp, don't recall the model, (100wpc) it was very neutral sounding, and very clean. Very desirable traits for a studio amp. It would make a great base for a bedroom/small room system.
