Price Paid: $700.00 from djdeal.com

Summary:
It is a good amp for the money. At 650w into 8ohm, it has enought power to drive any speaker outhere. The only problem that I encountered is excessive fan noise. Compared to my QSC RMX 850, the crown xs1200 made twice the fan noise which is very irritating in a quiet room. I bought it to prepare for use in a karaoke system but i am considering other brand as well. After careful consideration, despided the noise that it put out. I still think it is a great value amp for the money.

Strengths:
Power, Price, Convenience set up.

Weaknesses:
Excessive fan noise

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
