If you want a cheap arse amp that is less likely to blow up, give the Jaycar/Response amps a look.

yeah... the words "boss" and "problem" seem to go hand in hand.

Why would you waste your money on any Boss gear? Instead of wasting money buying amp after amp, go out and buy a semi-decent one.

If you spend $50 on an amp, you're getting your moneys worth. If you spend $300, you will get your moneys worth.

lol exactly. Why bother with boss if you know they have a unique reputation of blowing up or catching on fire.
