Manual says 800rms... and the only internal pic I found suggest the PSU is a little on the weedy side. I have a 400w amp with the same size PSU and I doubled up on caps for my own peace of mind.

If it sounds like a gorilla is trying to escape, turn it down.

Been offered a few at a very good price and they kind of remind me of TOA power amps that are bomb proof! |

1 per bin might be ok... if they are cheap as chips have a punt |

I have some Ramsa amps and I must say that they are some of the best built amps I have. Whatch the caps. They may need replacing. Otherwise built like a brick sh#t house. Panasonic is the parent company or was. I heard they don't make them anymore. Old ones Sanken fets newer NEC I think. ELNA caps. Should be fine if you sevice them. Not power monsters.
My WP 9150 's have 27 screws holding the top cover on. Bit OTT. |

No, mine are all 200w into 4r so bit pointless. I use them to run comps. They do sound ok. As I said I don't think that they are ment for 4r bridge. I think that they are really designed for installs. They will last eaons at low volume in a fitness gym or meeting hall. Wouldn't think that they will rinse the bass out fabric style for very long. Still a very well built amp though.
