That would be one interesting contest. Although for the life of me, I cannot think of a contest in which the prize of a 300 Watt x 7 channel amplifier ( which would retail for at least $2400 IMHO ) would be practical.

That said, perhaps an essay contest on why you deserve the new amp. Limited to 2100 words, one word for each watt. Grammar, spelling and punctuation MUST be correct. Additionally, the winning essay must be posted on the forum, with the person's name ( the forum member's name, not necessarily the real name ) so the rest of us can see how well the winner has mastered the written word. For fun, perhaps the worst 5 essays would also be posted ( with the forum member's name ) as a contrast. Now while that might seem unkind, you ARE trying to win a very nice product, so the risk should be worth it.

Just my .05 worth.
