Soundstream MA680.4 $124.99(refurb)....Good Amp?

[sc_beerbarge 10+ year member]

I know it's a refurb but it looks to be a Marine version of the TRA series. For $152 shipped to my house seems like a decent deal.

Any opinions on the Soundstream Refurbs?

I've looked hard at the MB Quarts. I'm a product of the 80's and Soundstream holds a special place in my Hair Band teenage years. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Gotta rock the dock old school. Since I'm too poor to build a house.....I'll provide all the McMansion owners a variety of clear G&R, Ratt, Def Leppard, Slayer and Classic Metallica.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif
