Sunfire 8 Channel Flat Eight Mini Amp

This year at CEDIA Sunfire has introduced new 8 channel audio amplifier that can deliver 130Watt per channel. The unit looks like a 1-U rack component despite being silver matching other Sunfire products. In total Flat Eight can do 800 watts RMS on all channels continuosly.
Also, Flat Eight can deliver 1040 Watts into 4 Ohms with THD less than 0.5% (what?). It is equipped with protection circuits that include automatic low- and high-frequency speaker protection circuits, as well as speaker short-circuit protection, input overload and static electricity protection up to 150,000 volts.
And here is the funny part on the unit's overheat LED. Bob Carver promises to eat his hat if the light of that LED turns on. He says it is there just in case. Flat Eight will be available in November at suggested $1495.
