>What model is this? I can't find it on US Amps website. Also, why doesn't the circuit board go all the way to the end - AND, why don't the endplates look like US Amps' products - the lightning bolt is in place of the palm tree and there is no grommet in the opposite end - also, the font is totally wrong. It looks like a US Amps heatsink, and a homemade/retrofitted amp circuit board designed to *look* like US Amps. It doesn't seem to jive with anything US Amps builds, however, with those four multipin "chip" amplifiers (LM3886's) in the audio output section. Something's fishy here, and I don't think you're telling the whole story. If I find out this is a fraudulent listing, I will report first to eBay and then to US AMPS for use of their name to sell a product they do not make. Please advise.

My reply:
Dont be a dumbass. I dont have time to fabricate my own amp and label it US Amps. If I were to go through that trouble, I'd give it a higher end name like Audison or Mcintosh.
This is a US Amps. Just because you cant find the specs doesnt mean it doesnt exist. It's an older model amp. I've used US Amps back in the mid 90s and have seen this amp marketed by them before.
