What amp do you recomend for running 2 or 4 T39s w/ kappalite 3012lf drivers? I was thinking about a XTI 4000 but should others be considered?

XTi 2000 will power 4 of them without issue.

XTi 4000 will power 3 or 4 (if you want to risk running at ~2.5ohm) on one channel leaving the other channel open for your tops.

+1

I run two T39 3012lf on one side of an XTi2000 now. When I build the other two, they will go on the other side of that amp.

I use a QSC RMX 2450 for 4 T39s. Mostly because I have had it for a long time and didnt want to buy another amp. I would get an XTi 2000 though if I needed an amp and processing.

I run 4x T39 3012lf on one channel on a 4000 all the time, I just don't run them extra hard. Three on one channel will purr like a kitten and if you set the limiter @ -6db in the dsp you will be right @ 53v if summing the input to mono.
