I use a Bryston 4B rated at 250wpc. It runs fairly cool and has great control over my NHT 12" passive sub. The 7B would handle just about anything thrown at it.
Good Subwoofer Amp
I have a decent system, I run 4 high box satellite speakers that are built with very high Dynaudio drivers, electronics etc. I also have 2 custom built subs, both closed system design. One running a custom 15" driver that cuts of 16db per oct at 40hz, and a 12" sub that handles from about 30hz to 250hz.
Anyway I have a pair of 7270 McIntosh amps to run the high end, and use a C-39 preamp. I was using a Carver 350 watt a channel amp bridged to run the subs. Well after 15 years it has decided to go south. What would you guys recommend as a good bass driving amp that does obviously need the clarity of a high end amp to drive the high frequencies, yet has a lot of punch . I need at least about 250 watts at 8ohm , 400 into 4ohms, or a decent 500 watt mono block, or amp with a lot of headroom that runs cool.
I would lost something that is not a bank breaker in terms of cost. I am very aware of many high end amps that would fit the ticket. But what is the feedback on an Adcom or similar amp?
Thanks everyone!
