Since Precision Power was taking forever to repair the amps, I blew a gasket and got the President of my retailer on the phone. Ended up with a PowerClass 4100 amp (4 X 100W, or 2 X 100W + 400W X 1) for my troubles, with which I was quite pleased since I picked up another 100 watts for my sub.

Well, finished up the install yesterday; looked and sounded great!! However, while deeply involved in setting up the system (the signal processor is pretty involved in order to get it just right) the 4100 went POP! No sub, and mostly distortion from the front channels. The rears, now powered by the 75W X2 PC275 amp sounded great...little consolation.

Anyway, since I'd had enough at this point I decided to call PPI and ruffle a few feathers.

At their cost, I'll be overnighting the amp back to PPI tomorrow, and they promise to repair it the same day and overnight it back to me. I'll simply wait to see.

Am I cursed or what?? I will say, though, that for the few minutes that it all worked, that sound was breathtaking...so no matter what moderator Brian says, just do it...he knows this stuff better than likely any of us!!!
