I tried that one once too - "But dad, everyones doing it...."
Didn't work for me.
I suspect the original poster was laboring under a misconception that somehow the VA of the amp was of concern, and we've pretty much strayed way off that line of thinking.
The 770 looks good, I just hate to see something this unimportant get all blown out of proportion. Better to fix it and move on.
