What do you guys think of the Crest Pro 8200 for an amplifier for the LAB Subwoofers. I'd prefer to not spend $2,500 on 2 amps when i can get the QSC 4050HD and whatnot for pretty cheap, but i want to make sure i get the right fit for these boxes.
I want to make sure we can run them close to clipping (Maybe occasional clipping) and not burn up drivers. Reconing and replacing LAB drivers are just a pain in the ass.
I was also considering Crest CC4000s / Peavey CS4000s, QSC RMX4050HD or Crown XTI-4000s. I am really concentrating on the fact that it's a 800 watts a 3 ohms cabinet (I believe 2.7 is the minimum).
I also thought about the I-tech 8000 running in stereo with 2 boxes per channel, but i know these things lose power when the impedence drops below 4 ohms so i was kinda shying away from those.
It's just so tough to decide because so many specs are based on 1khz and sometimes the 20hz-20khz number is substantially lower and sometimes it isn't much lower at all (Would prefer one that doesn't lose a lot of power down low). Let me know what you guys think
I know the QSC PL6 PFC (2 cabs per channel) would be great, but i only have 20 amp circuits to deal with most of the time. I
