Just returned back from Emofest...where my friend decided to sell his (2) XPA-2's for new (2) XPA-1's.....  Surrounded by a mess of cables....that led to a 2:00am night.....I finally looked down at the front right XPA-1 to notice the serial number: #666 ;D We have a feeling this will be a troublesome little booger over the next few months.... Either way....both amps crank out an evil amount of power!!! |

Maiden is one of my (many) favourite bands! Lirics from The Number Of The Beast:
Woe to You Oh Earth and Sea
for the Devil sends the beast with wrath
because he knows the time is short
Let him who have understanding
reckon the number of the beast
for it is a human number
its number is six hundred and sixty six.
I lived alone
my mind was blank
I needed time to think to get the memories from my mind
What did I see?
Could I believe?
That what I saw that night was real and not just fantasy
Just what I saw
in my old dreams
were they
reflections of my walk man staring back at me?
'Cause in my dreams
it's always there
the evil face that twists my mind and brings me to despair
Night was black
was no use holding back
'Cause I just had to see
was someone watching me
In the mist
dark figures move and twist
was all this for real
or just some kind of hell
6-6-6 the Number of the Beast
Hell and fire was spawned to be released
Torches blazed and
sacred chants were phrased
as they start to cry
hands held to the sky
In the night
the fires are burning bright
the ritual has begun
Satan's work is done
6-6-6 the Number of the Beast
Sacrifice is going on tonight
This can't go on
I must inform the law
Can this still be real
or just some crazy dream?
but I feel drawn
towards the chanting hordes
seem to mesmerise...can't avoid their eyes
6-6-6 the Number of the Beast
6-6-6 the one for you and me
I'm coming back
I will return
And I'll possess your body
and I'll make you burn
I'll have the fire
I'll have the force
I'll have the power
to make my evil take its course
;D
#666: the XPA-1s aren't big sellers, hey? Mine are from Feb 2010 and I have #500. That's only 83 pairs between.

Need to play that whole Maiden album on that system with the new xpas.  What speakers are being matched with it? I always envision xpa-1s powering big ass electrostatic panels. ;D Something like one of these.  (I know not really electrostatics, but you get the idea.) |

That is very cool. Too bad you can't change the LED lights to be red all around rather than Emo blue. Also according to Wikipedia some theologians believe the number of the beast might be 616. So the XPA-1 owner with an SN of 616 should be careful.  |

Then 616 and 666 would make a great stereo pair. ;D
