Deal Details
This is pretty decent sale for a good external amp ime.
Don't let the numbers fool you, it provides solid clean power for 5 channels.
Ime in many cases it can easily rival the usual 11 channels AVRs sonically.
Especially if your AVR has preamp mode.
For the spec people here they are.

BTW they also have the 11 channel for $979 is pretty good also.

Circuit Topology

The BasX A5 is a five channel power amplifier. The BasX A5 combines classical audiophile amplifier architecture, based on a heavy-duty linear power supply, and a carefully designed high current short signal path Class A/B output stage, with advanced microprocessor-controlled monitoring and protection circuitry, to deliver superb sound quality at a truly reasonable price.

Audio Specifications

Power Output (ALL channels driven):

• 95 watts RMS per channel; 20 Hz – 20 kHz; THD < 0.1%; into 8 Ohms

• 130 watts RMS per channel; 1 kHz; THD < 1%; into 4 Ohms

Power Output (two channels driven):


• 120 watts RMS per channel; into 8 Ohms


• 175 watts RMS per channel; into 4 Ohms

Power Bandwidth (at rated power; 4 Ohm - 8 Ohm load): 20 Hz to 20 kHz (+ / – 0.02 dB)

Broad Band Frequency Response: 10 Hz to 80 kHz +0/-1.8 dB

THD + noise: < 0.02% (A-weighted); ref rated power

Signal to Noise Ratio (8 Ohm load):
> 116 dB; ref rated power; (A-weighted)

Minimum Recommended Load Impedance (per channel): 4 Ohms (equals one 4 Ohm load or two paralleled 8 Ohm loads)

Damping Factor (8 Ohm load): > 500

Input Sensitivity (for rated power; 8 Ohm load): 1.2 V

Gain: 29 dB

Input Impedance: 27 kOhms

Input And Output Connections

Input Connections: Unbalanced (RCA); one each per channel

Speaker Output Connections: Audiophile grade 5-way binding posts

Trigger:

Power Requirements

115 VAC or 230 VAC @ 50 / 60 Hz (automatically detected)

Protection

The BasX A5 is protected against excessive operating temperature, shorted speaker connections, ground faults, and other common fault conditions.
