| As I have found it, the CX100.1 and 75.1 are considered unlimited, but all other AB amps are OK.
The 400.1 is rated @ 1000W The 200.1 is rated @ 600W
correct? I am getting conflicting info, some people saying that all VFL AB amps were considered unlimited as of last year. If so, can someone please link me where USACi said this?
Thanks. | |

| FURTHER INFO:
So this is what I have to go on: the above listed amps are unlimited due to a potentiometer issue. the VFL-200.1 was rated for 600W @ 4 ohms the VFL-400.1 was rated for 1000W @ 4 ohms the VFL-500.1 was not rated and is unlimited the VFL-1000.1 was not rated and is unlimited
correct? are there any other models which were rated or not rated and are unlimited? | |

AmpGuts shows it as USACi rated 598.9 ... so I don't know ... I cant find ANY info on here from USACi about what the amp is rated for. | |

| Also, for amps protested doesn't USACi have a 20% rule?
EX. Amp rated 500w @ 4ohm. Tested at 599w.
500 X 20% = 100w 500 + 100 = 600w
Amp passes 500w rating

| I was thinking about it. I just want Ralph or Darville to step in here and let me know for sure before I look at dropping the money. I was told all VFL amps are unlimited but ... no proof to back it up LOL | |
