A cool little find... - Toyota Yaris Forums

A friend's mom set this aside for me after she won a lot at auction. Bless this woman!

It is a bit dingy and worn from storage on the outside:

Apparently it used to belong to some Tony Warner:

The guts look fine. I'll bench test this little thing on Monday. I think the shop owner has another one sitting at home like this. He's an old school RF freak. I can pass on RF myself, gimme old school Kicker/Stillwater Designs anyday:

Doesn't look bad inside there for being 15 years old. There is an allen bolt missing and the rear gain is missing...I can find those...

What are your plans for it? I have it's brother sitting in my stash at work. I can't remember but I think it is a 250.2. I got it for free but it doesn't poer up. I have no interest in fixing it but you can have it for shipping if you can use it.

Let me see wht Jim thinks. I really snatched this up for him, since he's an old RF amp fan. I'll holler back at you on that one.

dude.. I had one of the 2000 vintage Power 800@2 amps... Was a decent amp, I ran it 2ohm mono daily for 2 years and only once popped the thing. By 2000 fosgates quality had started to sag a bit... a 95 vintage @2 amp would be a quality piece. I'd love to have something like that for say a fiancee's system. Would make for a good component amp, or even to run a single 10" or dual 2ohm 8's.

That would indeed make an excellent component amp at 60 x 4.
