, from Vancouver, BC, Canada
Price Paid:
$150.00
from A&B sound
Summary: You just CANNOT go wrong with this amp. I bought it at a boxing day sale for 150$ Canadian and I dont regret doing it. The small investment has payed for itself over the years. You might think you need a monolith of a reciever to watch star wars. Well, it sounds absolutely crazy with this amp. The speakers I use are all Sherwood(for that system) as well. and for the little 3 inch woofers, they put out phenominal bass. Its amazing how the small speakers and economy reciever can fill a room with such lively music.
Strengths: Cheap cheap cheap!
Value!
Music sounds great in Phantom mode(PH)
Weaknesses: a wee bit underpowered
Setting radio stations can be a hassle
Similar Products Used: None really similar, my other amps are:
Sansui A-1110
Hitachi SR-6010
QSC USA 900

Summary: Surround Sound!!! I usr this for Computer audio to Drive MTX P215H Professional Loud Spkrs. I alos create Audio cassettes and Private Home Video ( VHS )sound tracks. It handles all of my unusal components!!!
My main dislike of this product is the Fm Tuner. Pain in the neck. I do not have a remote for product and it would probably make thing easier, so what have we learned boys and girls?!?!?!? DO NOT LOSE THE REMOTE CONTROL!!!
