Raven Audio Blackhawk. This product was over-hyped on these forums. I bought one and found it to be below average. Sold it at a significant loss. 
 

 Peachtree 125 - bright, bright, bright  

bowers and Wilkins CM10s - sterile, thin midrange. Sold it within a year. 

That forum hyper gave out so much trash "information". I'm sure you're not the only one that got hosed,

All trails leading back to one particular ‘Individual’ thankfully no longer able to shill products on here for his buddies 

Back in the early 2000's I bought a Crown amp getting rave reviews, 1000 WPC. It lasted a week in my system, I let my friend try it to buy it he gave it back. Rather shrill sounding and good bass.

I also had an NRG Control amp after that and it sounded ok but was built poorly.

"My ex wife."

Very tacky technik.

They’re great for PA Systems and or supplying the muscle needed for Home Audio sub drivers, but that pretty much sums them up.
