Amp comparison chart - how do I post it here?

Since we constantly get questions about amps, I've put together an excel spreadsheet of the most commonly used/discussed power amps. It has wattage, weight, and prices. I think it would be a really good tool to save a lot of time, but....
I can't figure out how to post it. I've tried a copy and paste, but all the spaces are deleted making it worthless. I printed it out and scanned it, but the file is too big.
Any suggestions? Or, did I waste all morning putting this together?
I could just email the file to whoever wants it, but it would be way more useful if it was posted.

Export as PDF, import into Photoshop/Fireworks/etc and export as JPG.
Or send it over here and I'll do it for ya.

I figured out how to get it to a jpeg file.....unfortunately, it has to be kinda' small to get under the 150kb limitation. But, it can clicked on to make it bigger.
I started a new thread.

Certainly could....thought I'd start here and see what the response is. That and see if there is an easier way to post it. Maybe with a link....but to where? Or, send it to Bill and he's puts it in the sticky section...I'm sure he has the ability to post different types of files.
Just depends on whether it is deemed worthwhile.

Bruce, didn't mean to suggest that the work you done wasn't valuable. It is great, thanks for all of the research.
I was ahead of myself and thinking about additional ideas.

didn't take it that way at all. I was thinking about a lot of stuff that could be added, but the main point was to give folks some comparison other than the anecdotal musings of all the "objective" opinions here....
We've all got our favorites, so my thought was that this would give folks a starting point.

Code: Select all
The code tag makes text monospace, so you can export from Excel as tab delimited and the columns will line up.

Thanks. I'll have to try that. But, so far there hasn't been much in the way of interest - so I guess I'll let it simmer the way it is until someone wants something else.
Thanks again.
