J jhayes Enthusiast Nov 28, 2005 13 0 0 Dec 17, 2005 #1 I was looking at a 70W amp for a pair of Aura bass shaker pros. While the recommended up is probably 100W, I doubt I'd ever have these things close to full volume. Do you think the 70W would be enough or should I splurge the extra $50? Thanks!

I think you'll see somewhere that the amp's power rating should not exceed 50 watts or you risk damage to the amp. I had these things in the past and used with a very powerful spare amp. These things ruined the amp in a year.

You can't be serious? Bass shakers? Just buy a vibrater and some batteries.
