I'm no tattle tale.

I believe the companies issue the PST depending on the billing address.

I found a place in Mississauga that has them at the same price as Axe, with GST and PST it would end up around $100 more than getting one through the US though. That's a fair amount on a $180 amp.

Just joking on the "tattling" of course, I know you'd never do that.

Ummm, do you think I could trust Fred though? ;\)

Behringer stuff for the most part is total mainland Chinese crapola... It would be a total waste of money to purchase their amp. You'd be a lot better off getting the Emotiva UPA-2 for a hundred bucks more. It's a triple darlington so it's in a whole other class!

PS Behringer is like the Monster of musician audio products. They are involved in constant lawsuits over copying other companies designs and use their size and muscle to screw smaller EE houses. Total A-holes with absolute crapola products. STAY CLEAR!

I knew a girl who put me in a triple darlington once.

No, twice.

She really WAS in a whole 'nother class!

I thought about starting a new thread, but I'd rather hijack this one.

Regarding these pro-amps (whether the Behringer, QSC, Crown, etc.)...

Since I already have a BFD and since my Onkyo 805 has all that groovy processing, what would be the downside of using something like this as a subwoofer amp instead of using the more common plate-mounted, sub specific amps?

If I was, you know, hypothetically interested in adding a DIY sub or something.

Funny, I've read way more complaints on Emotiva products than these "crapola" Behringer ones.

Won't argue with you over Chinese business practises, or lack there-of, though.

Charles, how's the QSC working out for you?

Tom, I think FredK would be the guy to talk to about using one of these pro-amps on a sub. I believe they are quite popular in the DIY crowd.

Tom. The EP2500/4000 is the amp of choice for the DIY sub crowd. People with the equipment and knowhow have measured the EP2500 to verify output and, while its quite not as high as they state this amp delivers the most watts per $ anywhere.

The truely insane buy more bigger pro amps.
