I have been using an earlier version of the plate amp that is linked below to drive a JBL 18" sub-woofer (2245?). This is a Dayton 1,000W (AB) plate amp.
It seems OK but I don't have much to compare it against. I did try a bridged Adcom 555 to drive this speaker but I could not get enough volume from it to match the rest of the system. Anyway, the specs on this plate amp are not very impressive and it has lots of THD compared to other consumer amps.
Is anyone else using these? Is a high THD rating bad in a sub-amp or does it not matter much? What are you using to drive sub-woofer systems?
thanks...
