Plate amps

[Big E 4]

Does anybody have experience with Dayton plate amps (namely this one)? I'm in the process of building a small, compact subwoofer setup for my dorm room on a budget, too (read: less than $150 for amp, preferably). Any other suggestions for amplification? The sub is the Sundown E12 prototype (dvc 4), so I'll most likely be running at 8 ohms.

I am sure it will do what it says it should. Personally haven't used one.

These were on sale for near $100 a while ago, http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cf...tnumber=300-750 , and I know a lot of people used them with good results. Potentially finding one of those used should be fairly easy. At 8ohms it should have at least as much power as the Dayton.

Apexjr.com is another good place for plate amps.

After further research, I've decided on the dayton. I should have a build log up within a week.

It will do you fine, looking forward to your build.
