The top one looks like a ME 200, which is what I have at home at the moment.

For a small (in power and size) it is an excellent amp.

Most of the weight comes from the cabinet, the sides/back are made from 32mm MDF, with the front being 60mm thick. It's then heavily braced to keep it as rigid as possible. They are complete bastards to get up stairs.

Yes, 155kg each.

From top to bottom, ME200, ME550, ME850, ME1400.
$1300, $2500, $6000, and $10,000, respectively.

And by the way if any "tosser" could make money then we wouldnt have poverty.
I agree 100% with your opinion - don't feel you need to justify it to people by saying I give "x" amount to charity each year - people who do that are the real tossers as they have to brag about how much money they give - if they were really doing it to help people they wouldnt go bragging about it would they?
