High Power A/B sub amps?

Looking for a class A/B amp that will do 1400rms or more @ 4ohms. So far I found the older PPI amps, any more?

Why do you want class a/b for a sub?

or are you planning on use it for speakers?

1400@4 ohms??That may be tough.

The PC2350 is a 2ch which does 1400@4 and the PCX2400 does 1600@4. I may just go with the PCX2400, but Im just looking for other options.

Why do I want A/B? Just to experiment

You will need a pretty massive electrical system to provide them with the power they will need, or more likely your electrical will not be able to provide them with enough power and will choke them down, limiting your output.

Class D really makes a lot more sense for high power subs.

Hmm, weird. Why do the PPI's only have 4awg terminals then?

ecause when you run 1/0 back to a distribution block a foot of 4 is probably ok, if you are worried about it get reducers

i run a pc2350. they do 1400 rms at 12 volts. best amp i've ever owned.

had the pcx2400 for 2 years

one of the best sub amps i ever had

1,6kw at 4ohm and massive control over the subwoofer, pretty hard to find a class d amp that sounds as good

Thanks for the suggestions, for far Im still leaning for a PPI,

That soundstream looks badass for $260.
