behringer reference?

This thing looks like a beast at 500 watts into 8 ohms. Aesthetically it is horible, but maybe all the enginneering went into the electronics. I am just wondering I guess if this behringer reference a500 amp would sound good in a 2 channel set up. I am kind of on a budget, and dont care about looks, so I wonder if this amp at less than 200 would be a good bet. It definetly would open up my options for speakers. I am thinking if this amp works I can than spend a lot more on speakers where I may see the true gain in quality. What do you think?

No reason why the Behringer shouldn't work BUT keep in mind that it is much easier to make a good 10 Watt amp than a good 100W amp and so on to 500W.
You would probably NOT get the extra extension & quality you paid for from the speakers.
