The Best Amp for the Price of Dirt

The Berringer a 500 Reference Amp that can be purchased on Musican's Friend web site for 194.00( each) to your house in the US of A w/ a 2 year warranty is a KILLER. I have several amps and these are scarey. Granted they were designed overseas & built in China... However, they are 19lbs GIANTS . Don't take my word go to the "Audio Critic" web site for a full review. This is my one an only give-away . Use it or loose it. Best to 'All

For $169 bucks each, I will forgive them for no customer service.

I spent more than that insuring and shipping my Mark Levinson amp back for repairs.

In the meantime, my Behringer stuff sounds better and better, and seems to be working just fine.

Cwlondon: Its good news to know your Behringer stuff " sounds better and better ". I'm with you ... For what you get for $169 they can be forgiven for no customer service /response. I'll "bank" the difference @ the Bank.

Readers , just a FYI: The two Berringer A-500s continue in my possession and operate flawlessly. They are to me the Dirt Kings @ up to 500 W mono per side that is highly regulated wattage that can be easily adjusted from 0-500W. I believe they now retail @ $269 per side but can be found discounted over the internet. Absolutely not SOTA but not so bad a runner in the race , considering they work with most panels and drivers on the market. All The Best

Great, Peter Aczel loves this cheap amplifier! Too bad Mr. Aczel is deaf.
