bmccord Audioholic Oct 25, 2005 221 0 18 Apr 13, 2007 #1 Hey all. I am now in the market for a large amp. Here is the deal. I am in the process of ordering a 15" TC-3000 and 2 15" PR's to be tuned to 14-15 Hz. The enclosure is just over 8000 in^3 NET (21"ish cube). The driver being quad VC can be wired in a 1.4 ohm or 5.6 ohm configuration. I don't know of many amps that can handle 2 Kwatts at 1.4 ohms. The driver is 1000w RMS and 3-4000w Max. I am looking to give it around 1500-2000 watts at 5.6 ohms. I know the the Behringer EP2500 (given it will do 2400w @ 4 ohm bridged) would do it but those things make a ton of fan noise. Any other amps I should take into consideration for under 800 bucks? Thanks. I remember seeing a list on here a year or so ago but I searched and cannot find it again. Brett

bmccord Audioholic Oct 25, 2005 221 0 18 Apr 13, 2007 #3 That is exactly what I was looking at on Amazon. Craziness. Anyway, do those run more quiet than the EP2500? I am wondering if I should just get another Behringer and be done with it. I just hate hearing cooling fans during quiet scenes...
