Acoustic 370 amp question

[petermuca]

Hi guys, so I found a used but in good shape acoustic 370 amp for sale for 350 euros. They are pretty rare here in europe. Is it powerfull enough in 4 ohm load? What are you think about the deal, it is worth it? Thank you.

4 all day long! I think they are even stable down to 2, but you better check on that. I had one for years and loved it.

At 4 ohms i think it is supposed to be around 250 watts but I found mine to be very loud at 4 ohms. I have no idea what they would be worth but they do seem to have good power and tone.

No problem at 4 ohms. My '73 370 has been pounding various 4 ohm JBL loads effortlessly for 40 years now and never even got warm to the touch. Can safely do 2 ohms when fresh and new, but I wouldn't only because the age may make the tolerances not quite what they used to be. Not sure on the Euro at the moment, but $350-500 dollars US seems fair here in the states. Not a bargain, but good.

Dammit, gas mode is activated again Yes they can run at two ohms and I read that they like low impendance.

Btw 350 euro is about 480 us dollars now.

Yep, I think EUR 350 is a good price.

I had one for 20 years; very well made and reliable.
I stopped using it as the tone and power output no longer matched my needs.
I think their worth about $300 - 400 dollars in the US.

Yes, they can handle 2 ohm loads all day long!!
