Well I bought the Precision Power PC400.4

Guess we'll see how it sounds etc..

I see they are for sale on ebay for 279.99 so I feel better about the price I got mine for, I only paid 110.00 for one bnib.

That is a pretty big price difference. I paid 150 bnib for my hifonics and consider that a good deal, but dayummm thats a steal.

Looks good, I always liked their oval shaped chassis. Not sure what they were thinking when they made their amps look like starships from Star Trek.
