Need recommendations for high gain/small footprint class d amplifier


I'm looking for a smaller sized class d amplifier to biamp the bass drivers in my custom speakers, which I was told should be about a 3 ohm load.  I'd say something with at least a nominal voltage gain over 30 dB should do.  My stereo rack was built for smaller components, mainly using Bel Canto and Red Dragon currently.  I can squeeze something up to 13.75 inches into the rack but a bit narrower would be easier to work with. I've been considering the Channel Islands D-500 but would like to keep it under a $1000 used if possible.  Your recommendations are appreciated.

higher gain than the Red Dragon S-500

 

Why???? This is a typical problem for any active crossover and we solve this with attenuation of the gain.  QED.

Um, kind of curious why "high gain" suddenly came into the picture.  Most amplifiers are between 20 and 30 dB I believe.  Are there "low gain" class D?
