I've been trying to beat a 5-ch out of him forever. Problem is if he did one it wouldn't be a 4ch and a sub amp crammed into one case. True to the brand, he would have to go above and beyond our expectations. Since market demand for other products is more than it is for a 5-ch, I suspect that our dreams of a 5-ch may be lower on the priority list //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

ya, 5 channels are demanded as much... its smart of him not making them, too much of a risk in this day and age.

It has crossed my mind but I don't have immediate plans for one.

i agree that the demand is low, but it is very convienient in many applications (like mine)

just imagine. active front stage with a pair of 8" misbasses @ 2ohm off the 5th channel. just wondering if it ever crossed his mind

You want a 5-channel so you can have mono midbass? I doubt that idea ever crossed his mind. It shouldn't cross yours, either.
If you want to run a fully active 3-way front stage, just go out and buy 3 4-channel amps like I did. Lots of flexibility. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

no, a 2 way with midbass. if i wanted a 3 way, i would just run a 100.4 and 100.2

well maybe a short production, like 10 protos, if it goes well and the demand is there then yeah go for it. if not only 10 people will have a sundown 5 channel amp lol

That was my reasoning as well, too bad prototypes cost ALOT more than regular amps....

Im confused, you said 'active front stage with a pair of 8" midbass off the 5th channel'. That certainly implies a quasi 3-way that would have mono midbass.
