    Amcron Geodyne 2 - Crown?

    Anyone have experince with this amp and is it any good?

    Is Amcron an Crown amp with another name or is it also a simplar version of Crown?

    If it's the same as Crown just with another name for Europe, anyone know what model it's equal too?

    I've seen those and are aware that Amcron is made by Crown.

    But what I don't understand is what differs between Amcron and Crown, most Crown amps are called Crown also here in Europe, only a few is called Amcron.

    And if Amcron Geodyne 2 only is a relabled Crown amp, which Crown amp is it equal too and is it any good? It looks very similar to Power Base except of the volume knobs.

    ...it looks very much like a PT3.1 Crown amp I have.

    I agree, they look very much the same!!



    Is it any good? Is it usable for hifi or do the fan make too much noise?

    I can't speak for the other models in this series, but the PT3.1 fan is
    fairly loud (noticeable during quiet moments in an HT environment).
    I'd guess this was necessary due to the dense internal packaging.

    I have not tried it mounted in an enclosed cabinet... might be tolerable.

    It -does- do a good job bridged, pushing a 2242H though
