[QUOTE="Keyboard_Rambo, post: 6196593, member: 612997"] If I had to guess based on the OP's other threads, I am thinking that he is inferring something along the lines of 15 year old amplifiers being better than what is currently available today. Personally, I don't see how that can be because there have been significant technological improvements since those relics were first manufactured. Sure, the basic overall class ab design hasn't really changed much since its first introduction, but I would be willing to bet that the actual components on the circuit board are exponentially better than what was available 15 years ago! Also, amperage draw per amperage draw, class D appears to be where it is at for efficient use of power. People like gunz4me, my cousin, who pull that: "Let's see a Korean made amplifier last this long!" really crack me up. I always find myself correcting him by asking: "Just how long have these relics of yours been installed?" and that usually shuts him up. The reason some of his amplifiers have lasted so long is because they spent most of their lives in a closet, just sitting there. I don't know about any of you, but I think it is a waste to have gear laying around doing nothing. [/QUOTE]
