[QUOTE="helotaxi, post: 2054238, member: 550915"] Tighter tolerance components are a good sign. Look for blue colored 1/2 watt resistors for starters as they are 1% vice the standard 5% tolerance. If they've gone to the trouble to bother with the tighter tolerance resistors, chances are they went to the trouble to use higher quality components throughout the amp. Other than that you would really have to know exactly what you are looking both at and for because essentially you arelooking for an overbuilt amp. If you don't know what the current requirement for the different devices are and what the specs for the specific devices are you can't really tell anything. [/QUOTE]
