Advice on budget amp.

for the same price range of the amps you listed as your choices you can buy many different pro amps that are as good or better (brand new) from your local guitar center store & get a 30 day no questions asked 100% money back gaurantee.

ive got 2 pro amps & they easily compare to alot of midfi amps & blow some high end amps ive owned out of the water.

look at crown & qsc amps.

hi bill,i haven't tried the sla just yet,the pro amp im extremely excited about trying out right now is the crown master reference 2,i need to take my 1201's in to have the bulbs replaced in them as soon as the weather clears up(ive been lazy) & as a loaner amp my tech is going to let me demo the crown.

if the crown is as good as my tech says it is i will be rethinking the big monoblocks.
