600watt Digital Amp for £600

Well maybe!

Not wanting to take anything away from Michaels fab amp, you could look at these amp modules



From these guys http://www.bkelec.com/Professional/Amplifiers/ClassD/ClassD.htm
No idea what they sound like, but they could be great.

 

I believe they use these modules to drive the subs they produce.
You can source the module (else its something incredably similar) in the states for $340-$400 I've been reliably informed

 

if there like there other power amp modules then they'll be good value for the money,ive used quite a few of there mosfet modules on varies systems over the years,some are over 15 years old and are still being used regulary to run stage monitors

 

It was 2 modules for £400 until they updated their website..

 

i might invest in a pair of these for my upcoming project

if i'm not mistaken (as it doesn't list in specs), the input connector is an XLR/Jack multi-thingiby-jigger? ie, it will take either.

just making sure

 

certainly looks like one in the piccy

 

Proac have been playing with these recently, even using them to power the mighty D100's to good effect.

They are a veritable bargain!

 

even more tempted now...

auch well, something to save up for

 

they look really interesting.

one day (if I ever move to a bigger lounge) I intend to do-a-merlin! and build some top subs... I think these would work well for that..? Do people think they would work as active modules screwed into sub cabs?

Chris,

I'm sure they'd be superb - although i'd leave them outside the cab. I've reacently heard a number of Class D amps performing bass duties and of course am using one myself) and they all excel with tremendous control and pitch definition.

The new Tact SDA is quite remarkable for the money (about £800)
