This is a old cross fire amp. Model # CFA6002. The model # is listed in the yellow section to the left of 600 in the pics. I can't seem to find another crossfire amp like it ANYWHERE:o):.( I searched like 2 hours yesterday) I took the back plate off and took pics to help you guys. I figured someone may have some info here. . It has 2 seperate 25 amp fuses in it.( Not sure if the are the proper fuses though because its not listed on the amp. Sticker on back plate says made in korea(Is that bad?) Serial Number on back plate is 95011253 Any specs would be greatly appreciated;)

Here are the pics:

I think it's not a Crossfire. Ampguts shows nothing of that low a build quality in their photos...

Anything available as far as text silkscreened on the PC board?

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

I have the amp open in my lap but my camera is not good enough to pick up the text so I'll just put what i see.... In the middle of the board it says PA-6000C other than that looks just just numbers for resistors and diodes and such. I'm still baffled

Yeah, the circuit board looks like a crossfire design, looks like from the early 90's. Looks like a 2 channel 300 watt amp, 150rms X 2.

It looks like a crossfire to me too. Same circuit board manufacturer, same clamping technique. It looks as though it a very early production. According to the specs of their other amps that Ampguts do have listed, It is probably rated at 2 X 150 into 4 ohms. 2 X 300 into 2 ohms. 1 X 600 into a 4 ohm mono load.

As far as the fuses go they are probably the correct size, but if you want to be safe, get 2 15 amp fuses and 2 20 amp fuses, replace the 25s with the 2 15s, play the amp as hard as you are planning to play it, if you blow the 15s put the 20s in it. If they blow put the 25s back in.
