I got the quote back from Deb and it's basically selling at Factory Outlet prices.

She gave the price for the ADA1250 that is 312w@4ohms;. The ADA1000 is 250w@4ohms;

By comparison, I can buy a Crown XLS1002 and get 350w@4ohms; so i will gather it's about in line with the mid level Axiom amp except it's a switching power supply over the Axiom linear toroidal unit. Now according to the video from Andrew, the linear powersupply allows them to upgrade the unit to as many amp boards with the same power design. The Crown does not do this but really do I care. I just want 4 channels so I'd buy two units and on the shelf they go driving the speakers.

So we are back to the unanswerable question of which of those two amps would sound better? Craig?? and opinion??
