Don't know how long that pricing has been up or when it will disappear.

I got one of these elsewhere for 400.00 a few weeks ago, so this is an even better deal.

One problem I had with my BH 500 was that the mounting of the speakon jack on the back panel was problematic. I could not seat and lock a speakon plug in the jack. I had to swap out the round head jack mounting screws which were obstructing the plug from rotating and locking.

In general, I was not totally knocked out by the sound of this head. Still, a lot of people seem to like it a lot and it's a great price.

With the THANKAVET coupon, the price comes out to $314.99. Tempting. Guess I need to start researching threads on this amp.

IIRC correctly the sound is pretty good but it seems to be over rated on the actual watts.... few threads on TB. just search

Restocked item soooo, no telling how many. Also means no chance for a price quote elsewhere!

This has some of the same visual ergonomics layout problems as their atrocious self-destructing BA500's front panel did (remember that?) and is apparently from the same Chinese source.

I'll totally pass on this after the BA500 episode, even if this one isn't literally falling apart like the combo was.
