Lab Gruppen
Lab Gruppen amps are pro-audio hidden gems of brute force wattage. These units are great with the largest of subwoofer drivers (15-18") being run at 2 ohms. You can get thousands of watts per channel which are what you NEED in order to drive 10-40hz sound with authority and achieve reference (theater) linearity.
The crown, behringer, and QSC products have also been used for this purpose. For the very high wattage requirements of some subwoofer setups however, the Lab's are among the best. Powersoft's products are also mentioned in the same breath.
The "big sub" DIY guys in multiple forums will recommend the Lab Gruppen products with or more commonly without the PLM (parametric eq and other DSP features).
I have the Lab Gruppen PLM 10000Q in which I was able to dial in my PEQ settings for my built-in subs in my room. Now those settings don't really ever have to be fiddled with. The power output out of this thing required a 30amp breaker minimum for my room. This thing can instantly be running ALL 4 CHANNELS at 2000+ watts and can be putting out 10000 watts at a time total. This is nothing short of crazy power. The fit and finish of this thing are also very cool. It doesn't have 12v triggers or automation features for my control4 system so I just leave the thing on. It has fan noise and so it is not meant to placed in the same room as your speakers/listener. Another thing to keep in mind is that it is actually a 2 channel amplifier that can output those 2 channels to any of 4 output channels. This was not clear to me when I purchased it or I might have bought a different model. Sonically, my EQ process went fine by splitting the front 2 subs in my room from the rear 2 subs. My symmetric room did not require 4 separate channels of EQ/time alignment. Other than these minor quirks this thing is among the best-of-the-best in subwoofer amplification. It is the baby jesus at christmas... I suspect I will never need another subwoofer amp in my life again.
