They are indeed. Heard them in Phoenix on XLF's. Lots of boxes! Crazy good sound.
 
Yes they are - very impressive and better sounding then 1.2KWs even at low volumes, which surprised me a bit!
 
Best amp Mc has ever made, without a doubt.

While I'm afraid of any newer-produced ones, anything made from a few years ago back to the 2kw inception is undoubtedly a top notch amplifier.
 
I would need six of those of those amplifiers (18 boxes) if I were to convert my system!

Definitely not happening.

that would be some serious power. I'd still love to hear them
 
What do they retail for? Do they require any special AC wiring in your home? Like your own transformer station? LOL!

The retail on them in 2009 was $35,000 each.

As far as power is concerned, each power module requires a minimum of 12 amps at 120volts, so they each require their own power circuit of at least 15 amps, two for each channel and four 15 amp circuits for a two channel system.

Bob, that "toaster" weighs 123 pounds and is 17-3/4" (45.09cm) wide x 12-5/16" (31.27cm) tall x 26-5/8" (62.54cm) deep.

That photo is very misleading in what it looks like.
