Great separates for the price! You can pick these up on E-bay for about $150.00 each. Better than most receivers and as good as the best with there separate power supplies and 4 ohm load.

I've had them for a few months and love them, only wish I had the other equipment to use them to their full potential.

Unit has no bottom-end grunt. Really fast but not full-range.

I believe these sound great, and are a steal at the price they go for. I like the way they can be chained together and auto-on. I also prefer the versatility of a monoblock, compared with 5 or 6 channel monster-amps.

I demo-ed a pair of these monoblocks for about tens days in my home system and was both impressed and disappointed with their performance. They seemed to be lightening fast but with little to no guts under about 80Hz! The presented a very lively, upfront soundstage but lacked the underlying foundation to really put out a solid full-range sound. Their lack of bottom end really blew it for me! At the price, I guess compromises had to be made.

I can't say a whole lot about this amp except I have five running in my siystem and the seem to perform really good. They do what they are supposed to do,just sit there and wait till they have to strut thier stuff. When you call them to perform, they rock.
