No problem, I've been checking everyday!! I sure hope that it works as advertised also. I'll let the forum know how it goes. Hopefully installing Friday if all goes as planned.

Just bought one. I'm going to pull my four-channel and put it in my truck and run four speakers on the bike bridged at 2 ohm to really bump up the power.

sorry guys, just logged off my paypal account. bought the last one. now i need to start to figure out what speakers i am going to want to pair with this amp. any thoughts on the 7.25 j&m rokkers?? i know they are 2ohm spec'd speakers and this amp is capable. i almost would prefer to run the amp at 4ohms to keep it as cool as it wants to be. the amp is a good step in the right direction.

I just got rid of my RF, I didnt like it. It sounded good for the first 10min, then it got hot and started to sound like crap. Got way too hot! Arc is the way to go for in the fairing amps.

sounds like you had the 300x4. What speakers where you running? 2 or 4 ohm? They also had problems with the early verizons overheating. Maybe u had one of those.

4 ohm is the way to go...this amp does something like 100 or 110 watts rms at 4 ohms. When you go to 2 ohms you get more power, but you also increase distortion. Forget "bike specific" speakers. Go to a car audio shop and have a listen.

I was running Hertz 6.5, the Biketronics version......I am actually selling them to go with a high end component set.

My amp and speakers have 2 months of use. They were both bought in late August of last year. I doubt they were early versions. My problem is that I just want more.
