Like I said far from 3k.... And that was with a starting @ .5 ohm voltage @ 15.4 dropping down to 14.8. What do u think it does at 13.8? Either way they are still nice amps sorry for coming off like a jerk good luck with the sale.
Its weird that all of you jump on bandwagons but don't ever listen to some one who actually ran that amp when they came out in 2003.... sounds like u need some more12'ers lmfao.
No worries Trippy, I didn't think your post was too bad. You were pretty much right on, needed to have an upgraded power supply and mofsets, both of which have been done. I wouldn't say it's not even close to 3k, as in the link Tommy said there was still some work to be done with the gains and estimated another 500w or so. But, oh well. It's a solid amp no matter what, I am sure it's next owner will be happy with it.
Oh, and thanks for all the bumps/views lol.

well, i happen to have one of the 1000's. the problem with the amps in stock form, is that the intersil fets have legs made from brittle metal, and break off over time with vibration, leaving the remaining fets to carry the load. so, as this happens, the power output goes down, until it fails. so, 90% sure that this is what happened when it failed, and you would notice more power even if it was the same amp, only new. the one i have, i plan on modding similarly, as it actually is a nice, stout amp, save for the fets used. so, this is actually coming from a guy who actually knows the specifics of the amp in question, above and beyond just owning one. just replacing the fets makes this a better/upgraded amp than stock. you should do some reading around before becoming a know-it-all in the classified section. curious to see pics of the handy-work. any idea what outputs were used?
got the page to load, and i can verify that the amp in that thread has definitely been upgraded exactly as described. should probably post current pics. if it still does 600rms @ 4ohms, then it would show that rail sag condition(strained, stock) has been made more stable, and that there is more to be had from the amp. 3k is feasible, imho, just a matter of what ohm load.

*IF I have forgotten to exchange feedback, please let me know*
i buy broken amps....
No, i will not "gift" paypal. please do not even make it awkward by asking. if the fees are an issue, I am usually inclined to add them. unless you have discount elsewhere, shipping is through usps flat rate, through usps parcel post, or through the roof..... i am in alaska. thanks
