Scrappydue Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Plate amps don't get a lot of attention since pro amps are much cheaper and can have better dsp but this one might be a nice one for the person that's want to build a traditional subwoofer. http://www.parts-express.com/dayton-audio-spa1200dsp-1200w-subwoofer-amplifier-with-dsp--300-8000?utm_source=Retail&utm_medium=Email_Newsletter&utm_content=300-8000&utm_campaign=email112315A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvu80 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 New product, nice find. But expensive. I built a Dayton Audio Reference 15, sealed, RSS390HO driver. The sophistication of that DA SPA1200 makes my Yung 500 watt plate amp look trick as a brick. I would think that SPA1200 would match well with one of the 18" sub kits, maybe the Ultimax 18. That would still bring the cost of the sub with that nice plate amp to $1,000, where you could built a couple of UM18's with an Inuke 6000 for about $1100.

Scrappydue Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 holy crap they even have a 2400w one!! as far as i know that is the most powerful plate amp anyone can buy except speaker power which from what i gather on their website is for OEM manufacturers only. so you would have to know someone who knows someone to even get one of those.

Paducah Home Theater Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 A Fan? That's a non starter for me. Fans that are inside of the enclosure and easily modifiable if they're not the silent type. Seems to me that the back wave of whatever you're hooking a 2,400 watt amp to would be much more of an issue to worry about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derrickdj1 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Those DSP plate amps are a nice alternative for the right person. The Price is not outrageous considering this is decent audio gear backed by a good company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babadono Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 A Fan? That's a non starter for me. lol why? any big pro amp has fans. I just dont get why a fan would matter. A separate amp can be remoted to a utility room or equipment closet. I just don't like fan noise or any other noise for that matter. When there is no signal there should be silence. Hey its just me OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paducah Home Theater Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 That remote is the coolest thing. I realize purists disagree but I like to jack with the bass quite a bit. That would be real nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
