Meanwhile the guys who design/repair amps for a living say they're time bombs. Again, some people having good luck with them is not inconsistent with them being overall unreliable.I feel like if you follow the directions with them, then, you should be fine.
Keep in mind a lot of people abuse just about every amp out there and truth usually comes out in the wash with what gets the reputation for being bullet proof and what gets a reputation for being iffy.
