for the Portable T-Amp
I bought it from an online retailer for $20 bucks! It is like a poorly designed SET - no bass or power, measures like crap but - buy one and see! It doesn't suck! It's better than most solid state crap. Whether it's the class-T architecture from TriPath or the DC power; I used 1.2 volt NiMH rechargeables, it really is a marvelous joke! It is getting too hot for my Fisher 800B and I run it crossed over at 80 hz 12dB/octave high pass and it is fine for the bedroom background music with a subwoofer!
Product Weakness: no bass at all, low power Product Strengths: low price
