Plate Amp

Greetings,

Does anyone know if I can use this amp as a subwoofer amp: Full Range Plate Amp. I really dont need the high frequency output but it maybe useful should the need arise. Thanks.

You can add a dummy load on the high end for the time being but unless you need an active speaker amp, why are you looking at this instead of a regular plate amp? The XO point on that amp is 3K. Not what you want to send a subwoofer. You would need extra coils and caps and that would get expensive.

Hi Cal,

Reason is it's a lot cheaper and i can use it as stereo. I will have to look for other alternative. Thanks.
