The early ones did have a variety of problems but supposedly the ones 
manufactured after 1991 were pretty much debugged.

When I was looking for one a few months ago, I was demanding the serial 
number. I found one with low miles, just back from an Alpha checkup, and 
bought it, late 1999 model. It had the Alpha-Max installed too. Been a 
wonderful amp and will do legal limit plus all day long, any mode. Also 
has the external fan and is relatively quiet, compared to the 91b I had 
prior to that.

Didn't come cheap but we all know "cheap meat" is not good either!
