Still the best bargain around even with inflation, for high power, high Class-A bias monoblock poweramps. And used even better bargain.

Built for the glitz queens who have money to burn, all that CNC machining custom heatsinking and chassis work goes towards most of the costs.

Then you have Parasound Halo JC1’s monoblocks, cheaper case/heatsinks, circuitry innards just as well thought out, by JC.
" Price: $6000/pair. Approximate number of dealers: 20. Warranty: 10 years parts, 5 years labor (US, Canada)."

I’ve compared the $6k JC1’s against the gorgeous looking $60k Gryphon Antillion Evo on a pair of Wilson Alexia’s, after a/b’ing I "just" preferred the Gryphon but it’s 10 x the price.
