    The specs look decent, except the headroom is lacking.

    That's not uncommon for 75% of amplifiers on the market.

    You don't need a whole lot damping at 1Khz. I'd rather see it spec'd at 100Hz or lower. THD is super low, probably a TON of negative feedback in the circuit to get it down that low, which is not a good thing.

    Well, this is an old vintage 1985 Yamaha M-40 I picked up today for $100.00 bucks (plus $35.00 shipping).. Figured I really couldnt go wrong. Just wanted to know what a few people thought about it. Thanks for the replies.

    Exactly. Just numbers, what's the brand?

    Better give that Yammie ALOT of breathing room, they run HOT.
