What is wrong with your Sherwood amplifiers?

[bob wald]

NOTHING.....Sherwoods xat line, their top stuff.
id say the best amps made in the 90s or b4.
even thouyjr black alphasoniks..i likedalot too.
though i meant. but the alphasoniks wwewnt 2ohmstable in the early 90s.
like the Sherwoods.

It is kind of ashame that they folded. In the 90s, one of my friends
ran a pair of Coustic 10s off of a Sherwood XAT-240Q (4 channel bridged
to 2) and those things pounded.

Prior to that, I think he had a 140 watt (SCA-2100... maybe...????), 2
channel Sherwood, but that amplifier had something wrong with it. It
was always heating up and shutting down at 4 ohms stereo. The shop he
purchased it from checked it out multiple times and they said nothing
was wrong. Go figure...

Funny thing... My name is oldschool, but I am only using new
amplifiers. I found a great deal on some used Lunar Amplifiers, and
since they are based here in Louisiana, I jumped on them.

For my subwoofer, I am using a Clarion DPX1851 that I picked up for $150
when Crutchfield was clearing them out last summer. I just wish I had
held out for the DPX11551 because they went for $179 after the $20
referral code.

Now my wife's vehicle is using some old school gear. She is running an
Orion HCCA 225 bridged to her sub at 2 ohms with an Erath Electronic
Suspension module (servo drive). That allowed me to stick her subwoofer
in .625 cubic feet and it still plays fairly deep. The best thing of
all is I picked up a pair of HCCA 225 Digital Reference amplifiers for
$200, used from someone who needed the money. That is $100 each!

actually the xat i got is way too good for what im doing.....it was made
to win contests....
