Guys, I thought the amp that Ian was talking about was the A1400-2. I didn't think he'd spin off a bookshelf amp from the audiobyte amp. I suppose he can do both. Develop a byteshelf or bookbyte \:\) amp that's 150 watts/channel and an A1400-2 at 700W/channel.

Ah... yeah, I suspect that both will happen. Man, a two channel A1400 would kick butt.

What do you think a good price-point would be for the A1400-2?

I think it would do pretty well if it was priced around $1000. Per channel, that's pretty close to the A1400-8, but it would make it a more realistic purchase for a lot of people. It's not such an investment all at once. I still plan on having a separate 2-channel music system down the road, and I would probably pay around that price for such hefty amplification.

I forgot to congratulate you on your purchase, Eric. I am totally confident that the audiobytes will sound tremendous. I'm not predicting anything about the EP0 but I'd bet money on the rest.

I am not certain the EP-0 qualifies as a subwoofer. It looks more like a detachable woofer to me. I have no problem with that. Do you think those passive speakers are going to catch on? Will future M80s come with three jacks to allow adding a tweeter, a 5 1/4 or a 6 1/2 woofers? That would be your type of speakers! He he he.

It certainly would. I've been listening and comparing a A1400-8 in my stereo system as well as in my HT. Its a remarkable amp with what seems like endless amounts of clean power on tap.
