| |  Any good Techs for 2x4-1000 amps in Fla?
I have two amps that are 2x4-1000 and they need a few upgrades.
Just wonder if there are any good techs that have worked on these types of amps here on the west coast of Fla. |

Adam? Adam from AM Power? The same Adam that had problems building a 4 pill amp? You think he could work on a tube amp containing a pair of 4-1000's,the king of glass tubes?    |

| | These amps are way to heavy to ship.
The power supplies are very very large and heavy.
Has to be someone in Florida. |

To be honest Kevin I'm not into the B.S. either but I just HAD to say that.  I kind of figured you misread the 4-1000 but when opportunity knocked I had to open the door.  |
