Sherbourn 5 channel amp with 200 Watts per channel, $2,000? (1 Viewer)

[Luis M]

I am still waiting for the Outlaw 950 pre-amp thanks to some advice given to me from people here on this very forum. But I have another quetion and this time it relates to the Sherbourn 5 channel-200 Watts per channel amp reviewed on the july issue of Home Theater magazine (Sherbourn 5/1500A) versus the Outlaw 755 amp. You see both have 200 watts per channel but the price on the Sherbourn is a couple of hundred dollars less.

....ABOUT THE SHERBOURN....."Even on the surface, It's impressive: A five channel amp that offers 200 watts per channel and balanced inputs for $2,000. When you check under the hood, you'll really start to understand the value that this model represents. What you will find is five independent monoblock amplifiers with individual power supplies, individual transformers and even individual heatsinks".

This amp (Sherbourn) is raved about in this article and I wonder if the Outlaw is a great amp for the price or just another 5 channel amp in the $2,000-2,500 category?.

I am in the waiting list for the Outlaw 950/755 combo.

You lost me there. Outlaw 755 only costs $1299. Even the 7-channel 770 is $1799.

You are right Jeff, I lost you and myself, I made a mental mistake on the 755 price. I guess the 755 is a hell of a bargain. Sorry guys. Please delete this piece of crap.

Louis, I didn't read the review what was the outcome. How did the outlaw stack up against the sherbourn and what other equioment was used?
