Other sub amp for Gallo Ref3 secondary voice coil?


Hi - any Gallo Ref 3 users out there driving the secondary voice coil with a solid state amplifier other than the Gallo sub amp? The manual says you can use any 100WPC + amplifier that is stable into 4 ohms as long as a crossover (60 Hz or lower) is used.

I am driving my Gallos with tubes (with great results), and I don't have a "sub out" on my integrated. I was thinking about using a Rotel RB-1080 (200 WPC) to drive the secondary coil, and putting a crossover on the interconnect (like one of those little FMOD units). Just wondering whether someone had tried something similar...

Hello
What about volume control with the Gallo SA amp.? Then if another amp is used will volume control work O.K.
I guess it would work just as if you had a sub hooked up via high pass??
thanks
