Sold Pair of rare dual mono Sony ES aplifiers(g260/g2100)

[tyroneshoes 10+ year member]

The specs on these very rare amps are very impressive and under rated. lil info first

two rare matching sony mobile es dual mono amps. A g2100 and g260. 1 ohm stable and 2 ohm stable bridged. Probably the finest amps I've ever owned but I also just moved from 4 amps to 2.

Lots of power. g2100 is fused at 60 amps and was benched to give 500 at 4 ohms bridged.

The g260 is slightly smaller and fused at 50 amps.

Each channel is basicly its own amplifier as there are two power supplies in each two channel amp.

Specs are as follows for the g260 and g2100 specs are later listed.

Power output and total harmonic distortion: 60(100 for g2100) watts per channel minimum continuous average power into 4 ohms, both channels driven from 20-20,000 Hz with no more than 0.03% total harmonic distortion per Car Ad Hoc Committee standards.

Circuit system: OTL (output transformerless) circuit Pulse power supply.

Inputs: RCA pin jacks.

Outputs: Speaker terminals. Speaker impedance: 1-8 ohms (stereo) 2-8 ohms (when used as a bridging amplifier).

Rated power for the g260

60 watts per channel (20-20,000 Hz, 0.03% THD, at 4 ohms)

120 watts per channel (20-20,000 Hz, 0.08% THD, at 2 ohms) 170 watts per channel (20-20,000 Hz, 0.1% THD, at 1 ohms)

240 watts (monaural) (20-20,000 Hz, 0.08% THD, at 4 ohms)

340 watts (monaural) (20-20,000 Hz, 0.1% THD, at 2 ohms)

MAXIMUM OUTPUTS:

160 watts per channel (at 4 ohms)

300 watts per channel (at 2 ohms)

420 watts per channel (at 1 ohms)

600 watts (monaural) at 4 ohms

840 watts (monaural) at 2 ohms

The g2100 rated specs are

100x2 at 4ohms

180x2 at 2ohms

210x2 at 1 ohm

360x1 at 4 ohm

420x1 at 2 ohms

MAXIMUM OUTPUTS:

230 watts per channel (at 4 ohms)

380 watts per channel (at 2 ohms)

500 watts per channel (at 1 ohms)

700 watts (monaural) at 4 ohms

1000 watts (monaural) at 2 ohms

This amp was benched and provided a little over 500 watts bridged at 4ohms and about 700 bridged at 2 ohms. For a good idea of true continuous power look towards the average between the rated and max power.

Heres a pic of the g260

And the g260 and the g2100 on each end of a g2100 with a cover not for sale.

The gold "sony es" emblem was a custom touch I put on them from some other sony equiptment I had.

G260=some light scuffing= $160+ shipping from 07201

G2100= excellent shape= $200 + shipping

If you want both, Ill entertain offers but these are one of sony's best amps and go for at least this and more on ebay. No lowball. None will have nifty gold ES emblem either //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I agree with Panda. Don't dog unless you know what your talking about. These were when Sony was at its best. Until they went to all this "Xplode" crap. Beautiful collection of amps. GL with the sale.
