Fostex Super Woofer fw880 amplification options...




Hello All,

So I have purchased one of these monsters to replace my rel classic 98. Currently I am using it without enclosre behind my gear btween my main speakers, ( Altec clones). Driving it with the Rel plate amp (removed the Rel driver and hooked up the Fostex). This sounds very very good. I have been given suggestions for a couple other plate amps , JL audio and one other I can't remember.
I also am considering getting a Marchand two way active and just low pass the sub and keep the passive networks on the Altecs ( they are currently first order) and I'm quite happy with them. If I go this route I'd like to drive them with a pp tube , maybe a kt 88 or something .
Thoughts??

Thanks K
