All that said... the QSC PLX 1804 looks very attractive to me right now for the purpose of driving my two subs. You can't bridge that particular model, but it will deliver 900 watts into 4 ohms in stereo mode which isn't too shabby. Plus I believe it has a solid state power supply (no transformer) and weighs a mere 13 pounds.
I'd recommend a Crown XS1200 for $500: http://www.musiciansfriend.com/produ...r-?sku=481011V

You can get a new one for $70 more. Also has SMPS instead of transformer and is rated for 1100W per channel @ 4ohms. I'll be getting one soon. I hope to send it to Chuck for testing.

Plus, isn't the driver rated 1000 watts RMS?
It is I believe, but it is considered to be a conservative rating IIRC.
