It was in a house fire and still worked. It has failed twice since then but it gets fixed and I still like it. These amps are happy delivering large amounts of current. I'm a big fan of speaker fuses and I keep 4 amp fuses on the outputs. Playing music wil lnever take an amp near its rated output unless you really like distortion.
