My experiences with the AS-250...

I got a pair of the AS-250 units (M4 I guess, no nickel was offered at the time) when Mike first offered them (mid '90s?). I combined them with a pair of the MQ/Peerless Altec 17173 centertapped driver chokes and made a Brook 22A clone. (WE396 input amp/phase splitter, 5687 driver, Sovtek SP 2A3, no NFB). This made one great-sounding amp. While my speakers are quite efficient, this amp sounds more powerful than the 80W solid-state amp I was using previously. Even with zero feedback the bass is well-controlled.

If this is a relatively-simple coil wind job (compared to a 20-20 series unit), it might make a good budget offering. It sounds good to my ears, anyway.
