Hi Mark!

Outlaw power amps are built by ATI in the US, so are the Monoprice Monolith amps. Both product lines are well built and well rated.

I don't own any of them but I wouldn't hesitate to buy one of their products if I had the need.

The popular Outlaw M2200 mono block power amp

As more people going beyond 5 channels, I can see the need for external power amps may also increase. The Outlaw Mono block M2200 and multi-channel amps, as well Monolith's and Emotiva''s seem to be the most recommended amps on this forum. For some strange reason, I cannot find my Adcom...

I have had and still use the older 2200 monoblock. Solid gear. The newer 2220 is supposed to be just as good.
Have heard nothing but good things about the 5 and 7 channel amps.

I cannot confirm right now that the monoblocks are assembled in the US. My older ones from 2018 I think were brought in. Perhaps the bigger amps are assembled stateside?

I bought a 5000X to power the Atmos speakers I added last year. No real complaints about it. It has been solid so far.

Thanks guys for the link iam wanting to send a couple carver amps in for rebuilds wanting something to put in place to till each amp is done. It takes sometimes months to get them done and back . Plus these caught my eye on build and power for the buck and there built by ATI . Who knows if I like these I might switch the whole rig out .

I have old Anthem Statement A2 and A5 amps running my 7 channel bed. I didn't want to spend that kind of money on the Atmos channels though, so I looked at something more reasonably priced. When the 5000X arrived, I decided I wanted to do a basic test on all the channels before I put it in place so I ran the mains off the various channels instead of the A2. This was not a real serious comparison as I don't have an ABX switcher or anything like that, so it's mainly anecdotal audio memory speaking here - but I didn't note any terribly obvious change in sound when the mains were running off the Outlaw. I'm not going to pronounce that the Outlaw was outright just as good as the Anthems, but my conclusion was that if I ever needed to replace one of them without spending several thousand dollars, more Outlaw equipment would be on my list.

I’ve been a carver guy forever but there old and need refreshed after heck I guess 30 years . Sounds like these are powerful and build quality is what I’d expect being who builds them . I use all carvers in my main bed layer am hopeing like you said you could not notice a difference that’s definitely what I want as it could be in place for months while upgrades are done to the others .
