I have some spare audio components and plan to modify a stereo system for biamp operation to add a subwoofer. The room is 22 x 24 and the existing amp and speakers are Adcom GFA-545 II driving Polk 10s (re-coned). I have available a Rane AC22 crossover, a second amp and an NHT passive subwoofer.
Im thinking about using a Crown D-75A (which can be set up to operate in bridged-mono mode) to drive the sub. Here are the specs: Dual mode (both channels driven): 55 watts into 4 ohms. 40 watts into 8 ohms. 25 watts into 16 ohms. Bridge-Mono mode: 110 watts into 8 ohms. 80 watts into 16 ohms. Ive read that some applications require high current. Due to its light weight, I doubt this amp can source a lot of current. Does a subwoofer require a lot of current? If so, Im wondering if this amp would not be suitable for this purpose. |
