Whats cheaper

Whats cheaper/easier to find, a stereo sub plateamp that runs at 2ohms or 4ohms? I can never find the specs for plate amps at 2ohms, theyre always 4 and 8, so I figured i'd ask.

If you're talking about stereo and low impedance loads, I'd look into pro amps...

I run my earthquake supernova at 2 ohms.

Eduh has some plate amps, as well as parts express. also check out the Behringer (sp? ) 1500 and 2500 on parts express //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

I'd vote to Not check out the behringer. Go look around ebay and forums for used QSC and Crown rack amps.

Indeed, and have been for awhile.

yes........ at 9:21pm tonight, the sky will be here

thy, is there an audible difference between 350, 500 and 750 watts on a plate amp? how how do companies get plate amps that are 750 and 1100 watts from companies like bash and keiga? can regular people order them or are we all just relegated 250, 500 and 1000 watt amps?

Not quite in that aspect, no. My dislike of my behringer amp was the build quality on it. The quality of the casing and such was quite frankly sub-par and almost unacceptable. I can't say I'm very pleased with the build quality on any of my behringer gear.

Personally I'll buy used amps with a higher build quality. The amps put out power, I will give them that, they are functional, and if one is going for a budget build or is starting out and wants to go active, they are a good buy (like I was going for when I started out buying it, but my goals have evolved). They don't suit me though and I can't recommend something that I wouldn't personally use.

My .02$

God balls, don't you know you are wrong and aren't entitled to your opinion of a brand from your own personal experience. What people say on the internet is god... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
