I’m old. I’ve had back surgery. I did not let those considerations get in the way of moving Klipsch LaScalas up a set of stairs by myself. Nor was I daunted by a Mac 130lb beast hoisted up into a pickup, out again, and up said stairs. Ingenuity helped; using RaceRamp mechanics mats proved invaluable. They slide over any surface and have a handle. A dolly cart is helpful. Beer dangled in front of a neighbor or buddy can be highly effective. Point is, where there is a will …..
Handling Heavy Amps
There are several amps I’m interested in possibly purchasing but I’m dissuaded because of their weight. I’ve had lower back issues so I need to be careful. I live alone. Even if my wife was still alive she would not have been able to help much. Also Children live far. I see that many of you have these 60-100 pound behemoths and I wonder how do you manage. If I buy from my dealer he’ll load it in my SUV. However when I get home it will be difficult to get it out and onto the garage floor where I can place it on my handcart. Then when I get it next to my rack I need to maneuver it out of the box and up onto the rack. I guess I would need to see if my dealer would deliver it and place it on the rack. Probably for a fee. So that may work. But then if I need to paint, move furniture, resell the unit whatever I would need help. I think I can handle up to 40lbs. So how do you handle these amps? Is it a concern for you? I’m spoiled by my Benchmark 12 lb AHB2. It’s also the reason I’ve been investigating Class D amps.
