worth maybe 25 bucks. never sold for more than 100 back in 90's, and that 45 lbs was of the lead that they put on either side of the heatsink. The amp guts were extremely small.

Extremely OVERRATED...you might get 1kw out of it if lightning strikes it, but if that happens, you would probably be zapped too.

As Ryan stated...don't even bother.

Personally I wouldn't have given as much credit as Ryan did. They were junk, they might, make a really good doorstop.

They put heavy heatsinks on them to give the impression of quality products inside the amp.

Save your money and buy something actually worth the money.

lol, I remember those amps!

A friend of mine in high school had 1, piece of crap it was.
ya they are heavy, but it's because they purposely weigh it down, to make you think there is a lot of stuff inside. But the actual boards inside don't even fill up half of it.
