Ok, a little background first. financial strain forced me to pawn (doh) my beloved RF punch 301m amp. upon returning to get my amp from lockdown, i discovered that the freakin shop sold it!!! the Mgr owned up to the mistake and let me take my pic of any amp in the store. most were crappy but i decided on an Aurora AMP-1400.2 (best guess is 1400 watts X 2). its pretty heavy, about twice as long as the RF, is bridgable, has LPF and a gang of settings along with a Recomm? port (looks like a phone jack).
Question: Any one heard of or have any specs on these and whats the quality as Googling turned up no info on manufacturer or distributor.
any info would help and thanks in advance |

personally I'd have made the bozo replace the amp with the same thing.. even if it has to come from eBay, and he eats the charge.

'aurora' is a cheap no name brand, like legacy.
you really should have gone after him to replace that RF amp with something at least comparable. Not a $40 amplifier.
Sorry you got boned by that place. That really sucks.

a lot of folks like PA amps, but PA is owned by BOSS Audio, and I'm not that into anything made by BOSS.
Cadence has some very nice amplifiers you could give a look to.
