are you insisting on going with an off-brand amp for a reason?

personally, i'd consider a QSC RMX series... or a crown. or an AB international.

regardless, I guess it depends what your going to be driving.. what are you going to be driving, anyways?

Yes what's the power capacity and impedance on your speakers?

BTW I'm also looking for an amp, looking at these:
Samson S1000 - 340 W/ch 8 ohms, $350 US
Peavey PV1500 - 300 W/ch 8 ohms, $400

The Peavey has a low-cut switch to remove low-freq <40Hz garbage and someone told me this is good to protect the woofers.
Also has built-in crosssover so you can bi-amp and hook up a subwoofer on one channel and your "top" speaker on the other channel.

the low-cut filter will help protect drivers and can make the system run a bit more efficient.. it's always good to low-cut under ~40hz :)

remember that a system with an external crossover is much more expandable.. you can loop the high or low outs to multiple amps rather than having your crossover locked into the amp.
