What do you mean? Are you saying I should have written it inside of the forum?

For real. I think they are hitting the biggest part of the market with these little beasts. Id like to know about the the 4 channel now. Whatayasay we get one of them over to the D for some testing. :D Im still anxiously awaiting the full Ti review. Does anyone know when we are expected to see these in stores?

Good review looks like a solid amp can't wait for the review for the TI line.
Good job Eric.

Hot diggity damn that's a lot of power in a small package. You bring up a good point about having the matching case lengths... the added transistors would add a good amount of headroom, and I think it would be more aesthetically pleasing.

Of course if they made a link piece it wouldn't matter as much how big these amps looked side by side, since you could turn them into one tiny little surfboard. That would be pretty sick :D

I agree, I would love to see if the little 4 channel is as tough as the mono...

Great review Eric! And considering we have a great respect for your opinion, I believe PG made a great decision in sending those amps to you for review. When can we expect a review of the 4 channel??????

Top marks on the review and VERY valid suggestion for PG. Realistic too, and no doubt, it'll be taken on baoard.

Well done to all involved in the contribution of this review :)

Bravo, Bravo, Bravo!

I have always like the way you have done your reviews in the past. Great job to both AAMP and Eric.
