[QUOTE="Street DreamsCC, post: 6707769, member: 548401"] I have 2 JBL Crown 6000GTi amps from my SPL van. These are by far some of the best sounding and cleanest sounding amps I have ever had the pleasure of playing with. These are well worth every penny. VERY RARE . You can be one of a kind in your area.

This mono amplifier has +/-165 Volt DC rails that power two 3 KW BCA (balanced current amplifier) half-bridges. This allows three modes of operation: 1. Two high-voltage amps each driving 2-4 ohms with 160V+ peaks. 2. A single bridged output driving 2-4 ohms with 320V+ peaks. 3. A single paralleled output driving 1-2 Ohms with 160V+ peaks (patented). 6000-Watt Balanced-Current Subwoofer Amplifier With Current Servos.
