Exlibris, what do the Mastersound 300B mono's cost? Do you know their 845 mono's?

Dazzdax,
Right now, in the US, they are as follows:

300 B Monoblock: $11,695
845 Monoblock: $14,995
PF 100 Monoblock: $39,995
(These are the limited edition amps using four 845s to produce 117 wpc)

I haven't heard any of their 845-based offerings so I can't comment on the sound.

If you live in Canada, like me, the prices would be slightly different. For all I know, these prices may change after this week's CES.
They seem quite expensive. If you want Italian design and flare, why not Viva, which are somewhat cheaper. To answer Chris's perfectly valid point, I use a 22watt Viva Solista int and 180 watt SS Karan K180, through my 89db sensitive Acoustic Zen Adagios. The Viva has more grip and drive, better base and control, of the speakers. The Volume is roughly equal too, I listen at about 8 to 9 with both. Not all Watts are created equal.
I owned the Viva 845 monoblocks a couple of years ago.

"Not all Watts are created equal."
I couldn't agree more with that statement!
