Default Soundstream PN2.350D

I finally got that new PN2.350D in yesterday. And in typical UN fashion, connected it to my new test bench (got tired of pulling my fairing apart to test amps for people) in a configuration it's not supposed to be capable of handling to REALLY test it out; bridged 2ohm load. According to specs it's only stable at 4 ohms in bridged mode.
  1. What you can't see in the test bench pic is the cheezy yellow wire that's running up the left side of the box that is my antenna wire. I connected this amp and set it right on top of that radio you see there and no FM issues. Doesn't mean you won't have issues, simply means I did not.
  2. The amp pic illustrates the physical size of this thing compared to a 6.5" Polk grill. I likey!
  3. Unlike the PN4.520D which has a HP and LP crossover switch set at 80hz, this amp has adjustable crossover points on it, a bass boost control, and comes with the remote bass ****. I highly suggest you don't use the remote bass **** as you will only detroy your 6.5" speakers with it. The bass boost, well that one is up for interpretation at this point but be careful with it.
  4. I ran this amp bridged @ 2ohms for over 4 hours and again amp was barely warm to the touch.
I will not be running this amp in bridged mode; simply connected it that way to test it only. It will be connected in stereo mode to my currently installed BT479 6x9 lids and will also be testing the Pioneer TS-D6902 6x9s with it. Sometime in the next couple of days I'm going to attempt to find a mounting position inside the fairing for it with my currently installed PN4.520D, MM651 speakers, and accompanying crossovers. If not, then it goes in the tourpak. At 5x4x1.5 it ain't taking up that much room in the TP.

I'll follow up with more info after I get it installed and setup correctly.

Is it available to buy? I can't seem to pull up a retailer that is selling this unit. What is the current selling price? I assume that it is a 2 channel amp designed to operate 2 ohm loads? Sorry for the ignorance on this item but I haven't been able to follow previous posts on the subject.
