Summary:
Originally bought to power subs, Tried on my mains and it sounds so good it's remained there. (Is ultimate sub amp though) This amp has a ton of power (350X2 @8 with 3.5db of headroom) I bought it right before price was increased to $1800 but it is easily worth that. I think it's as good as anything under $3000. Cinepro amps are extremely underated in my opinion as most audiophiles are probably turned off by name which seems to imply HT. I'm very curious about how the 1K2SE sounds and am considering adding one and using 1K2 for my subwoofers. Cinepro also has great customer service.

Strengths:
Unlimited power, Great sounding, imaging, Built like tank

Weaknesses:
Has 1/4 inputs instead of RCA's (no big deal though)
