phasel linear 400

And so...?

Thanks for the warning. I won't buy any 40 year old mid-fi amps from Phase Linear. Not that I was any danger of doing that.......

and that's why they were commonly called "Flame Linear"

What's your point of this thread most of us are never going to buy one anyway.They had no speaker protection circuits and they sounded incredibly etched like nails on a chalkboard.
They were some of the most powerful solid state amps of the day mainly used for concerts and used in home systems with the guys using them having great hearing loss now.

I would take a old Threshold over anything carver ever made.

threshold, now that's what an amp is all about. you get what you pay for!!
