Does anyone here know a reliable place to have my amp bench tested in Maryland,Virginia area?I have a Stetsom 14k2d thats not putting out the right numbers and i have double and triple checked everthing.I'm getting 4200 watts at 3ohm reactive and i should be seeing 8k-9k out of this amp.

You're kind of boned. Nobody is going to have the ~2000A supply you need to test one of them at full tilt. If you're brave, open it up and check the rail voltage. Be aware that it's probably over 200vdc and will literally throw you or kill you if it zaps you. Or if I remember correctly you can check the DC voltage between either of the output terminals and ground, then double it.

If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.

He won't be able to bench it for power. At least he can check if the rail voltage is right and all the parts are ok though.
