I always loved Under a Blood Red Sky and when this was released with a DVD I had to get it. I have seen U2 a few times and enjoy all their music, but this was a special time for the band in their earlier days as they started to grow.

Many of the most important/famous songs from up to t

It's a great , sturdy bag with LOTS of pockets. I do like it a lot, it safely keeps ALL your photo toys, but to carry it around is not a good idea, it is heavy (WHEELS would be great). If you just need a place to store all your gear, go for it, otherwise choose something smaller and lighter.

Have been most pleased with the TOM TOM ONE XL-s. Was a great time saver in finding my way through rural, south Virginia to a road race course in the middle of nowhere! Highly recommend this unit for most basic, auto, GPS needs. Plan to buy a friend one for Christmas!

Product Description:

AudioSource Amp 100 is a power amplifier that is versatile enough to be used to drive speakers with different impedance ratings in stereo mode. Ot also allows bridging the 2 separate internal amp circuits for higher power sound to one channel. Though designed for home use, the bridge-application makes this suitable for use in bars and restaurants, where stereo channeling might not be considered, but high quality output is definitely an issue. Unswitched 400 Watts Power Outlet Bridgeable Outlets Rubber Vibration-Damping Feet AudioSource 1-Year Warranty Unit Dimensions - 2.9 x 16.5 x 9.25
A favorite of audiophiles everywhere, the AudioSource Amp 100 two-channel power amplifier is built to deliver powerful music, pure and simple, with few extra controls to get in the way. Listeners can use the Amp 100 as an independent stereo amp (50 watts x 2 into 8 ohms) when used with a preamp, as a second zone amplifier in multi-room applications, or as a rear-channel amplifier in a 6.1- and 7.1-channel system. Combine the Amp 100 with an additional monoblock amp (the Amp 100 delivers 150 watts RMS of bridged power) and a preamp and listeners can independently drive two front left/right speakers or two rear speakers, further clarifying each channel to create dynamic, high-end sound. To connect additional components to the amp, use the included stereo inputs with automatic priority override (for connecting to a source such as a receiver, CD player, or preamplifier) or the auxiliary output for creating a multi-amp setup.

The amp boasts a precise frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz and total harmonic distortion of 0.02 percent. Additional features include A, B, or A+B speaker selector switches, front-panel mounted volume and balance knobs, and five-way binding posts that work with both bare wire and banana plugs. Plus, at 16.5 by 2.9 by 9.25 inches (W x H x D), the device should fit comfortably in most rack mount or home entertainment setups. All AudioSource amps are backed by a two-year warranty on parts and labor.

Excellent amplifier at a good price
10/5/2008
The Amp-100 is a very good amplifier for the price. It is very easy to setup and use. It has good sound quality also. We connected four Dayton Audio 2-way speakers to the amplifier behind a Behringer mixer. The sound quality was excellent!

Great, BUT YOU HAVE TO USE SOURCE 2
9/10/2008
This amp is great (I have 2 of them, 1 for the right/left stereo signals and the other one just for my center channel) but there is one thing that you HAVE to know before you setup this device.

If you are only plugging in 1 device, plug it in source 2.

It makes very little sense, but I almost threw these things out the window.

See, they are auto-sensing, so they default to source 2 and will always amplify what is on source 2, BUT if there is a signal on source 1 (not just a low level but a few db) you will hear a definite 'click' as it moves to source 1. If your music or content plugged into source 1 all of a sudden gets quiet, you will hear another 'click' as it moves back to source 2. I made the HUGE mistake of plugging my equipment into source 1 and got all worked up that my equipment was cutting out when I would watch quiet scenes in the movies.

All I can say is: These things are awesome, IF you use them correctly.

Horrible - Does not Work - Constant Cut-Outs.
8/26/2008
I bought this product for 1 of 2 uses.
1. Use as a amp for a variable output from a flat panel tv to drive 2 speakers.
2. Use as a amp for a variable output from a MAC pro to drive 2 speakers.

It FAILED in both instances. As an amp, sure it works...when it wants to. The main feature I liked was the automatic on/off setting so that it could be used in a GREEN environment---so to speak. That part works....the only PROBLEM is when you are watching TV and a slightly silent moment on a show appears....no sound for 2-3 seconds. The AMP cuts out....plain and simple.

Now on the MAC side - you figure its a computer, it only makes sounds when it needs to and so the amp should be ready. Well, the green light is on but no one is home....no sound until you reset the amp.

At this point I figured maybe the auto on/off function was to blame....so I put the amp in manual mode where if its on its on and if its off its off......simple. You would figure that sound would come out of this thing no matter what the case when it is powered on. Sure enough...it gives you sound and then it cuts out...and then it gives you sound for a minute or two...then it cuts out....then another 5-10 second wait....

Forget it...save the $100 and buy something that works. I am sure there are other products out there.

Please correct me if I am doing something wrong...but I read the manual and I did it right....having some sense of this stuff I dont think I could have done it any better.

Hope this helps.

No good for dual sources
8/21/2008
This product had great potential and it does everything promised as long as you only use 1 source and you attach it to the LINE2 input. LINE2 is the default input meaning whenever there isn't any signal on LINE1 the unit instantly switches back to LINE2. The issue is with the "instant" result. When I play a DVD movie through LINE1 the AMP100 annoyingly switches back to LINE2 every time the audio goes quiet - even in between dialog. The switch makes a discernible "click" and usually does not return back to LINE1 right away so some of the audio you hope to hear is lost. Same issue with music tracks - during quiet passages the AMP100 switches back to line1 and if there is anything playing on LINE1 your other audio source starts chopping in and out. I have two AMP100's and they both operate this way. I spoke with Audio Source tech support and they acknowledged this shortcoming and tried to push me to buy the AMP200 which apparently has a time delay that prevents this undesired chopping of content that is connected to LINE1. They don't even provide a switch on the front panel to manually switch LINES, you have to unplug your cables to take control.

Otherwise a great product. It powers down nicely when no signal is sensed.

AudioSource Amp 100
7/21/2008
I was looking for a specific solution for my outdoor speaker needs; I wanted to run my outdoor Yamaha speakers in mono mode as they were situated in different areas of the backyard and stereo would not have worked very well. After a bit of online research I came upon AudioSource Amps. At first glance the entry level 100 appeared rather basic but I didn't need an additional receiver or a powerhouse amp (it's just for background music) so it seemed to be the right solution. I read numerous other reviews that indicated I was on the right track.

Amazon shipped quickly and I was self installing. The printed manual wasn't crystal clear - to me at least - and as I didn't want to blow my speakers due to miswiring I called in to the free support line. I was quickly connected to a live person (who wasn't located on the other side of the world) who confimed that I was wiring correctly for a mono application and the rest of it was easy.

I'm very pleased with the 100; I only run it at 1/4 volume and that's plenty for outside listening. Any more and conversation would be difficult and the neighbors might start to get annoyed. It's turned out to be an affordable, simple solution for me.
