[QUOTE="emilimo701, post: 6950321, member: 622834"] What do you guys think of the Boston Acoustics GT-2300, open box but not really used, for $360, is that a good deal? I'd jump right on it but i have a few concerns: -- i read a review that the fans get noisy. are they on all the time? and will i really be able to hear them in a wagon/SUV or was the guy just being fickle? -- it seems suspiciously light. but maybe that's because heavier heat sink replaced by fan(s)? -- it has no preouts. suppose i absolutely wanted the same signal for something else, like my sub, is there a solution to this? if i split the signal cables, does it degrade resolution, or lower the volume, etc? -- BA recommends 0 gauge power cable. now i probably won't be pushing this to its limits, but will using 4 gauge power cable distributed into 8 gauge (which would connect to the amp) affect the performance or durability of the amp? i know, n00b questions, but bear with me. i'm like a sponge i promise [/QUOTE]
