3/4 Channel Amp (have searched)

[buddy holly]

I've been looking at several amplifier setups to run Image Dynamics Chameleons components and one Sound Splinter RL-p 12". The only single amp setup I have found so far that could run this effectively is the DLS A5, however it has a somewhat skimping sub channel; 486 watts RMS @ 2ohms. Although I'm looking for more Sound Quality than SPL, I have read that the RL-p likes around 600 watts. Basically, I'm looking for a high-quality, single-amp setup that will put out 100 watts RMS to the Chameleons, and atleast 500 watts RMS (at either 1 or 2 ohm) to the rl-p.

Is there a better single channel amp for this job? My budget is $500 shipped for the amp.

why not just get 2 amps? you can probably do it cheaper with 2 amps, and get exactly what you are looking for.

a nice 600-800rms monoblock for the sub, which can be had for cheap, and a nice 300rms 2 channel for the speakers.

Could you suggest a couple? The best I can come up with is an Orion 600.1 for the sub and a Monitor mk2.120 for the components.

That sounds like a pretty nice selection //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbsupwink.gif.129404938effda6ad9cca39e7f4b58a3.gif Just remember that the Monitor 1 amps dont' have any built in xovers.
