Vinny, I have some "GOOD" advice for you. I suggest you become a little more diplomatic in your posts. Legacy amps use max power typically. The 240 watts obviously is not going to be produced but getting 80-100 watts would not be out of line. On a budget, Legacy is a brand to consider. I have heard a few systems that use them and they are not spectacular but are competent for an entry level amplifier.
Take my advice, stay clear of that amp and buy yourself something descent. If you look around I'm sure you can find an amp for 100.00 that will out perform that legacy in every aspect by far.
According to your previous statement, the 100.00 amp would be twice as good as the legacy. If he spend 100.00 on a higher power legacy, it would also outperform the 50.00 model by far.
If you need some help let me know; I've had many competition systems and I'de be glad to give you "GOOD" advice.
So far you have made some pretty good recommendations but I propose that you open your mind a little. Because you have had many competition systems doesn't impress me, impress me with your recommedations and knowledge and I may be more apt to listen. As it stands, insulting other people because you don't like their recommendations has the opposite effect. Besides, I have heard competition systems that sounded like utter crap, and also heard 500.00 systems that sound very nice and extremely balanced (using a legacy amp).
Post your suggestions but don't insult the rest of us by insinuating that you are the only one offering "Good" advice.
