Ted Do yourself a big favour and look into Elektra Reference Amps ... Hand built in Melbourne and will not disappoint @ around $4-5 grand.Edit: assuming it is sound quality you are after, not just a PA System for a rock concert.

Hand built in Melbourne and will not disappoint @ around $4-5 grand. Edit: assuming it is sound quality you are after, not just a PA System for a rock concert. I'll have a look. I'm trying to avoid niche brands. Been there, done that, and had my wallet burnt in the process.
Chopsus Maximus Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 I've had three Elektra's and am contemplating an upgrade ... They are built like tanks.
