LMAO. Too funny guys.

Im sure anybody that has been paying attention around here would love to own that amp. I would gladly ditch the Crown if that was showing up at my door.....

Just messing with you Kevin. I know what you meant and if you were the lucky one I'd be happy for you. Merry Christmas dude.

You never know Ben - it might just compete with your Bose amps. Maybe you drink some Crown if it made it your way! :shock:
 
What an amazing amp... I would love just to hear it in person let alone the thought of actually owning it. The amount of thought and work that went into it indeed make this a very special firebreathing Monster, you can't put a price on something like that. Again, hat's off to you Lee

Not sure exactly of the spec's on these amps, but im pretty sure you'd need to be in the 700 club to compete with an 1800/1801. I think the revamped 700's would probably be more inline, also more power if I remember correctly.

I like to stick to Bourbon if not beer. Although a rye and ginger every now and then is ok.
 
Thanks guys, I just love doin it too. Bubba, this particular 400 I've done for Stephen (listeninbg to it now) had a max output of 258 before clopping, it now does 315. Nothing close to the Bose. Or is the Bose rated at 250??
With the copper heatsinks it gets warm tacked out, and a finer sounding amp I have not heard yet. Would love to keep this one. But I will pick up the Pig when I drop this one off, and I think the Pig after a little work will come close, I hope anyway. May have found some more Blackgates so cross your fingers, they DO HAVE a definate impact on the clarity.
 
So will the countdown clock be going up this evening? Pretty excited! Would be awesome to own a badass 8 finner!!!!! I keep one of those clip on fans on mine to keep her happy when the woodstove is cranking, gets hot in here LOL

Yeah Bose spec's on the 1801 are 250wpc at 8ohm. 400wpc at 4. As I have mentioned before, the tech that rebuilt my first 1801 said he was getting 500 a side without maxing it out. Thierry's revamped 1801's are doing 650 a side at 4 ohm I believe.

Sounds about what a WOPL 400 does... I don't run at 4ohms though I wonder what the quasi and full comp 400's will do at 4ohms??? My non-fullcomp does about 258 per side at 8 ohms. I could not imagine what a full comp version 700B would do at 4 ohms WOW
 
Yeah, we'd need Lee or Joe to confirm numbers on the 700, but I thought Lee had stated around 1000 or 1100 for the 700. If my old Bose tech's statement is true the stock 1801 is comparable to a WOPL 700.

I believe what the tech had said was true, as my 1801's walk all over my 800 watt pro amp.

That rating for the 700B is 8 ohm IIRC, probably 1500+ at 4 ohms
