I'm considering using one of these to power monitors. $ 229 at PE.

The four channels can be paired to provide additional power, if needed.

See more at: https://wholesale.parts-express.com/beh ... --248-6564

Specifications: • Output power, stereo (all channels driven): 65 watts RMS x 4 (4 ohm / 1 kHz @ 1% THD), 40 watts RMS x 4 (8 ohm / 1 kHz @ 1% THD), 75 watts peak x 4 (4 ohm / 1 kHz), 50 watts peak x 4 (8 ohm / 1 kHz) • Output power, bridged mono (2 pairs channels bridged): 130 watts RMS x 2 (8 ohm / 1 kHz @1 % THD), 150 watts peak x 2 (8 ohm bridge mode) • Dimensions: 1.9" H x 19" W x 10.4" D (49 x 482 x 265 mm) • Weight: 8.8 lbs (4 kg). -

FYI. The link is to something in the wholesaler account, not accessible by those without such account...

No hype there. :roll:
The remarkable 4-channel EPQ304 packs a heart-stopping 300 Watts of output power
Better not touch the output leads. :cop:

It takes huge pulses of energy (current and voltage) to propel a woofer cone out fast enough to match a bass beat. That’s called Transient Response and it’s the holy grail of amp design
That's not what transient response is. :noob:

At 4x50w/8 ohms it's probably sufficient to drive Wedgehorns.

If it was me I'd go with this, not just for the higher power but the on-board DSP:
