"I havent listened to a PPSL yet, but I tried a lot of SS plate amps and they are so bad, there is no way of knowing how a sub enclosure would sound based on it running from a Plate amp.."I have only listened to one plate amp (other than the amp in Meyers 650P subs), the Torpedo SP1-4000 from SpeakerPower, and it sounds excellent on a variety of subs.
The amp is rated 4000W/2 ohm, 2400W/4, 1300W/8, it weighs only 7 lbs.
It has no problem driving four Lab 12 (nominally 6 ohm) in parallel, which at the impedance minimum points is only a 1.07 ohm load.
It also makes very little heat, other amps by comparison seemed like blow dryers when pushed to similar output levels.
Speakerpower also has less powerful and multi-way amps in their line up, which if the SP1-4000 is any indication, also would sound great.Art
