Hi all...

I have ordered and will be receiving a Soundcraftsmen PCR800. George Grand gave it a thumbs up. Obviously, there are better amps, but I'd love to hear comments from people who've heard it. From researching, it seems that sometimes the fan can be a bit loud. I have read many comments that it is a very warm sounding amp. I will be pairing it with the following:

HK AVR 354
Polk RTA11TL's - It'll be driving these
The AVR will power the CS400, monitor 30's, and Def. Tech Prosub800.

THanks,

James
