JH> Well, I know about McIntosh amps, and no way in hell can I afford em...

The PPI amps are very nice. But why bridge 2 of them? You're much better
ff
buying 2 2-channel and 2 4-channel amps. A plain 2-channel PPI will put out
just as much power with less distortion, IMF, etc. And it's cheaper too.
