Default Using DJ Amplifiers in Home Theater

Does anyone here have experience using DJ amplifiers in their home
theater?


Definitely.

Is it recommended?


It's recommended if you do it right, and are willing to make suitable
adaptations.

One thing to watch out for is the fact that many of these amps have fans.
Amps with fans generally aren't such a good idea if you keep them near

your
listening location. They're not much of a problem if you keep your amps in

a
closet or outside the listening room.

Many DJ amplifiers seem to offer good bang for the buck.


You still get what you pay for, but you're buying out of a more pragmatic
marketplace.

One thing I notice is that few provide rms power ratings.


You must be looking at junk, or not finding the right ratings lists.

Good brands to look at include QSC, Hafler, and Crown. If you surf the
vendor web sites, you'll find very detailed RMS power specs.

Take QSC off the list. It's a testament to Arny's hearing difficulties.
Othewise, I concur.
