did you ever run this thing and how did it sound?
I did, ran it active in my old Mustang running some Vifa tweets, AA mids and 2 DIYMA R12s (also for sale), with an Alpine 9835 controlling it all. It all sounded pretty good with a lot of dynamic headroom, considering the ratings. The only problem for me was the amp was pretty big haha!

 
Is there an issue with the channel 5 input rca? It looks different in the picture.
And what are the dimensions?
I think it was just weird lighting of the storage unit. I'll stop by tonight and double check, with a tape measurer haha

So I double checked and it did have one of the RCA inputs replaced at some point. Not sure why - I never even noticed it when I first used it. It didn't affect usage though. The dimensions are roughly 24" x 7" x 1.5" FYI

And price drop to $180 shipped!
