correct me if im wrong but is that thing made of sheet metal? O_o

 

mine almost looks like that one, but the one you described as having sounds exactly like mine, when i get a chance I will post some pics.

And i took the plunge, I got a 12" Kicker cvr 2 ohm, just something with enough boom to satisfy me and not blow the wallet...I do plan on getting a new amp though...and as well as 4 6 1/2 inch crunch 3 way door speakers for like $100 bucks.

 

I had my amp pushing 2 12's so it should handle one 12 just fine. Plus I abused the hell out of mine so it should do you good untill you get another amp.

Not 100% sure but I think it was thin metal, might have been sheet metal. The build quality wasn't the best, and when I sold it some of the adjustment ***** had came loose. But I was like the 5th owner and after it sat in a damp basement for a couple years I got it and then sold it in 07 to a guy I used to work with. It's hard to tell the abuse the other owners did to it, let alone me, but it took it good.

Only time I ever got it to shut off was it got hot one time during the summer while playing "Wanna ride with me" by Young Buck like 5 times straight just to see how long it could hold out. Just another one of those older cheap products that worked good.

 

i always wanted to get on craigslist get a cheap sony amp and a cheap sub and turn the gain and bass boost all the way up just to get a good laugh! my work had 4, 20 year old floor speakers that they gave to me. 1000 rms (on speakers that didnt even have rms printed) lasted one note of "late night tip" that was the coolest thing ever.
