You have the right to express your opinions regarding audio,however you dont have the right to insult members and start childish name-calling.

To do so again will be an instant ban.

I have deleted the offending posts.

Now for those who say they like lots of output transistors, what you need is some Canadian performance. The beautiful and talented Yorkville ap 6040 and 6020 amplifiers will do the job and more, better than any QSC garbadge or crest ca . The Yorkville has metal cased output transistors which go to a much higher temperature before breakdown, and yet 24 output transistors per channel to spread the load nicely indeed for long term performance , high damping, and low distortion.
A true monster for less than 1500 still made in Canada.

I have found a considerable weak link on amplifiers of specific designs regarding power feed, connectors and compliance.  I have various amplifiers with IEC type disconnectable power cords and I replaced them with hardwired cords and also installing a type of clamp for the wire that is self tightening used mainly on watertight applications (like the way the power cords are installed on the back of Crown Macrotech amplifiers.  I have noticed a significant increase in power output and headroom (you can also feel it in your gut) after hardwiring in a power cord of the proper size, and proper connector.  I bought several QSC PL 4.0's a while back which already have fixed permanent power cords on them but mine came with 15 amp connectors on the end of the power cords.  Even when plugged into a 20 amp receptacle you can see the power LED dimming when I was running them at full power.  After replacing the connectors with proper 30 amp twist lock plugs there is absolutely no more dimming of the power LEDS on the amps.  I did the power cord surgery on all my Crest CC series amplifiers, my dozen CV5000 CV amplifiers, my Crest Pro 200 series amplifiers and reliability has GREATLY increased - no more power amplifier failures!
