Oldschool Coustic 190..... How much power does it do?

I have 3 of these amps and I can't find ANY specs on them. How much power do they make, and are they 2ohm stereo stable? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks

The amps sounded stronger than they were, the problem was the hexfet design continually melted. These amps were great...."when they worked".

Yep. The Hexfet section tended to run warm. That series of Coustic amp sounded good. The preamp section will be noisy compared to a more modern amp too. But hey... I'd rock the old school goodness anyway!

Thats because so many amps are over rated these days....and most old schools were under rated....
