| Suckout at 40 hertz...less pricey solutions? 40 Hz is tough. Nothing commercially available would touch that. If they could, it would be too big to be shipped.

| Step Down Transformer A good, properly sized one improves sonics IMO. There have been many on both sides of this fence, partly due to improper selection and installation, partly due to transformer's finicky nature. For this application, you should be looking at Signal'... | |

That's one reason for monoblocks, but even those are usually built for the same 15A circuit. Yours might be the... | |
