I had no problems with my GS1000 physically, but I had sonically. After several months of perfect working status, I started to get big distortions in the bass region on the most demanding orchestral pieces (think of organ pedals of Mahler's 8, the Dies Irae of Berlioz's Requiem) even at average volumes. According to this forum, there were quite a few with this very same problem, not a good sign for sure.
