[QUOTE="bubbagumper6, post: 7461523, member: 567719"] I wouldn't buy an amp off craigslist without powering it up......ever Perfect example, I meet a guy in the mall parking lot to buy a hifonics amp from him. I take the 5 minutes or so it takes to hook it up (everything) to test it out and immediately it starts causing my sub to make a high pitched noise (obviously faulty). He says his buddy gave it to him as payment for a debt...yeah right, whatever, I don't care where/how he got it, the point is he was trying to sell it as fully functional and had I not tested it, I would have bought it and been SOL when I finally powered it up.
