Freestanding subwoofer Amp

[Flipx99 0]

Are there any reccomendations for freestanding subwoofer amps?

I am looking to acheive 400w@4 ohms.

Here is an example of what I am looking for:

I want something more in the $250-300 range.

Any suggestions?

I will be powering two S-1 10s (the Sundown blowout sale sub) in a sealed enclosure.

Look for used rack amps on forums and ebay, particularly the brand QSC and Crown.

I do not have a rack to mount it so I was trying to shy away from them.

I don't really like the tabs. I guess I could grind them off.

I personally wouldn't grind them off, that would knock the resale value down quite a bit.

Many of them unbolt.

Could always just build a rack...not that difficult.

simplest rack i could come up with :

there are 3 holes in the side panels : 2 in front, for cooling and 1 in the back, for the wires

built it in one afternoon.

$50 over budget but it also has all the needed filters and doesnt have "tabs" that are noticable

The auto on/off is nice too

Did you ever find a suitable subwoofer amp? How about a Behringer EP2500? These can be found on-line for $300 shipped. They pump out a very clean 850x2 (rated at 1200x2) into 2 Ohms. They'll run all day at 850x2.

He didn't want rack-mountable amps for some reason, for $300 I'd rather have a used Crown over a Behringer.
