In all due fairness, he did say they were his picks...so you can't really say that he's wrong.

But the credibility is questionable. If I were in his position, I wouldn't have drawn those conclusions.

Now it's time for some cheerios.

If we can rate the "worst" amplifiers based on his repair invoices, then using the same logic we can rate the "best" amplifiers based on his repair invoices.
So, for example, if he's never repaired a Pyramid amplifier it would be at the very top of the list as one of the most reliable amplifiers on the market !!

Yeah.......

or no one would waste $$ to fix a pyramid POS:laugh:

Faulty or Fallible information... LOL

Yes.

Nothing to laugh about. It's the truth. If you don't see that, then you have rather poor reasoning and logic skills.

You do not have information pertaining to failure rates, customer demographics, etc etc etc to draw the conclusions you attempted to make.

I repair the things, so since I repair them, I still don't know what I am talking about? Whatever.

You might be able to repair an amplifier. You might know what you are talking about in that regard. You being a repair man doesn't give you the ability to make assessments for which you do not have the supporting data. See my previous posts for a little insight into just a few of the problems with the conclusions you've attempted to draw.

You simply DO NOT have the necessary data and information to draw conclusions of "worst used amplifiers" or even reliability of amp A vs amp B. You don't. End of story. And it's rather hilarious that you tried.

Using your logic, if you've repaired more Orion 2500D's than you have a Pyramid amplifier, we could rate the Pyramid as a "better" amplifier. Have you repaired more Sparkomatics than you have the Orion 2500D ? If not, then we must conclude the Sparkomatic is a better amplifier.

Yeah....genius......

I could say something really not nice here but I think I will keep that to myself...

Please, do share //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

and next time I post a list of "problem amplifiers" I won't even bother to respond to posts like this one.

Or, you could simply try NOT drawing too many conclusions from the very limited about of information you possess.

just stating observations as a repair tech,

No, you were drawing invalid conclusions from a limited amount of information.

I am here to help out the little guy with making a choice on buying a used amplifier.

How is posting invalid conclusions helpful //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

After all, I didn't even post this here in the first place, someone else did.

So ? We aren't allowed to discuss information posted elsewhere on the internet on this forum ?

I suppose if you don't want your posts subjected to criticism or discussed elsewhere on the internet, you should refrain from using internet forums.

Also, just to clarify....I have no affiliations with any manufacturer, and do not own nor ever owned a single amplifier on that list.

it was brand new, until you used it, now, it's used, correct? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gifBut we see re-calls on brand new cars, and sure, my 2005 Maxima has never had an issue, but some have recalls. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

See, you've never had issues with the DX350M you have, or others, some had connector problems with the modules on the D series DX700 and DX350. So it's kinda mute, ya know?

Nobody is perfect.....well, not human anyway //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

let me clear up something here is the point, yes it was new until I used it but here it is I got to use it for like 2 months and it broke on me...2 channels still work on the amp and 2 channels do not work...for a new in box never been used since it left the factory,,, something`s not right here thats my point of view, like I said the amp was used in an active setup I was not pushing the amp hard at all, like you wouldif you were using it to push some subs....and btw you are right no one perfect thats human
