Rogue Audio DragoN Monoblocks are sounding sweet!

We have the new Rogue Audio DragoN Monoblocks upstairs, and they are sounding simply sweet and powerful!

This amplifier blends brute power with musicality, finesse, and accuracy. If you have already heard of the reputation of the stereo DragoN amp, these are even more killer. Capable of 325w per channel into 8Ohms and 525 into 4Ohms. These can drive anything. Come audition the pair today!
