Super Powerful with EXTREME Detail!

I purchased this amp to run my main channel speakers with the Denon AVR-4800 using the THX Surround EX setup. It has 120 watts per side. The speaker wire mounting posts "left and right" are about 10+ apart from each other. The + and - are spread out more than normal. I enjoyed this since heavier gage speaker wire is difficult to plug or put in the connectors. Plenty of room to work with here, not cramped. It has an A and B switch. I use it for bi-wiring my speakers. Enjoy the amp, and sound is good enough for me. Would buy it again. It also has a cable to automatically turn it on when power to the Denon AV receiver is turned on.

I found this amp in the trader section of this web site. I got a retail offer of $560 new and found one used 3 months old for $400. Most sites wanted $694 for this $1000 retail amp.
