Damn. I would be looking to mount some heads on some pikes. Having lost more than one piece of gear to theft I feel your pain. I had a M44, two XS12's and Soundstream Ref700 stolen from my car one winter. Crazy thing was, about 2 months later, some cops come knocking on my door asking if I own the white Eclipse out front... They had my subs and the Ref700 with them. Didn't get the M44 back. They said it didn't work and dumpstered it. But I got about $650 from the kids that did it over the next few months. (I had bought it for, like $400 used a few years prior) Was an absolutely awesome amp.

Hopefully you'll have some part of my good fortune and get some or all of your gear back too. Keep your eye on Craigslist and ebay for sure. And any of the shadier pawn shops, though most pawn shops won't deal with anything they think may have any chance of being hot these days.

I feel your pain man. Back in the day my buddy worked at the local shop,I put 1/2 dwn on an M50 and he let me walk out with it, with a pymnt plan for the rest. Installed it runnin two JBL 10's in seperate bandpass boxes that me and my buddy built. I had like two pymnts left, got home after a good night at the bar, and you know the rest. I still have the box for the amp to this day, actually its storing my M25 :) Best thing to do is what grim mentioned, and hope for the best.

Where are you in the states maybe a couple of us are close to you from the phorum here and we could keep our eyes out for ya 8)
