SVS 25-31CI?

[Dentman]

Wondering what would be a good cost effective amp to drive this sub? Yes it's the unpowered version, thanks.

TITLE SHOULD HAVE READ SVS 25-31CI

This one from PE looks reasonable.

Intresting choice. I would hope you were in the ballpark with that suggestion considering it's pretty darn cheap.

Think I'll shoot an email to SVS and see what they say. I'm thinking it's going to want 300 watts or more, hope I'm wrong.
Thanks

Just heard back from SVS, they say I'll want an amp between 300/400 watts to drive this sub.

There's a bigger version of that parts express Dayton audio sub that does 1000W.

Wow that's a bit overkill is it not?

Lol. Call outs are the best. In the words or Mr Mackey from south park, stop being such a pussy, mmmmmmkay?

Many pro-amps have options for built in crossovers, but I don't know at what price point that starts.

I ended up buying a 250 watt class A/B Dayton Audio plate amp.
Extremely happy with the amp. I forgot just how great these old SVS Tube subs were for the money.

I am glad you got it going. Any complaints from the neighbors, yet?

Not yet but it's plenty loud outside the house. This is my first time with a sub on a second floor. My old systems were always on the first floor on a slab. There's no need for bass shakers here!
