WillistonAudioLabs Posted December 4, 2017 Report Share Posted December 4, 2017 Step back to 1987 and it your parents bought you a BMW or Audi as your first car, you could probably afford an amp like the a/d/s PQ20. At $770 USD, it was an expensive amplifier ($1641 adjusted for October 2017 dollars), aimed at those who wanted the best sound quality (and had deep pockets!). The PQ20 is a four channel amplifier rated to deliver 80x4 at 4 ohms or 200x2 at 4 ohms or 80x2 plus 200x2. The amp has no built-in crossovers to color the sound, it is just a pure gain block. Let's take a closer look at the amp and see how it performs on the SMD Amp Dyno.

Thanks for the videos! Thanks bro. Takes quite a bit longer than just doing a test on the Amp, but I try to include extra stuff from back in the day to make them a bit more interesting.
