It is a 1980's vintage Peavey DECA 700 amp that makes a great home audio amp. I purchased this one to run the bottom end of a pair of Polk SDA-SRS II speakers way back when.  200 @8  350 @ 4.

Pretty cool looking unit.  Weren't those units pretty noisy though, being more of a road rack unit for live performances and all?

Road rack unit for live performances, yes. Noisy you ask?  Quite the opposite actually.

Didn't it have any internal fans - I'll have to look at the picture closer.  Will it be at the shop when I come down in two more weeks???  Hmmm???? :D
