You actually don't have to ship your amps to a certification company to put the stickers on. Sticking the CE logo is just a way for the manufacturer to say "I think it's ok and if it's not I'm responsible for the mess". The manufacturer is just taking a rather serious risk. And of course, he should send a conformity declaration to the administrative body in charge. Do you mean that manufacturer doesn't even do that ?
