Should I get a Phoenix Gold Xenon 200.2

To power CDT HD-62 speakers (want around 180w @ 4 ohm), Id like to hear arguments for and against, I dont know much about this amp but have been steered toward it. Looks like I can buy one for around $300-330. Anything comparable for price? ANy other suggestions are also welcome, thanks

I brought mines new from Hookedontronics for around 157.00 shipped and I have them on a pair of cdt-hd-62s and they sound terrific, its a good amp.Go for it,but get it for a cheaper price.

I believe those are refurbs, which is what mine was. Was in GREAT condition. I loved that amp...so much that I went with the x200.4 when I decided to get some 8"s. I say go for it, it's a wonderful amp.

xenons are good amps, i have a couple 200.4s.

I wouldnt pay that much for a 200.2, you can get a 200.4 for that much.

wow...I paid the same from the same place for a refurb. looks like they have new ones for around 230, which sounds about right.

but ya, 300 is way too much.
