Something like a Marantz MA500 or MA6100.. Or a Outlaw Audio Mono-block.. Any other suggestions out there?

    There are a lot of good stereo amps that can be bridged mono. What's the application, budget, and power requirements?

    I have a pair of Denon POA-4400 monoblocks. Old school, well built and the amps can be individually bi-amped which is neat.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    I'm out but good luck. I'd look for a used Outlaw M-200.

    You can pick up a new Audiosource AMP-100 for around $110 shipped on ebay and various other sites. It's a stereo amp, 50x2 cont, rated on paper to 100w bridged mono - but on the bench they will hit around 137w cont before the wheels start to shoot off.

    I had 3 of these amps in my whole house rig for about a year, with no issues. Good, solid, cheap power.

    Cheers,
    Russ

    Which would you recommend the highest? AudioSource Amp200, Outaw Audio Mono Block, or the Marantz MA500?

    The Outlaw has a good lineage, from GAS and SAE. Marantz knows amplifiers, and is always a solid choice. Audiosource is owned by Phoenix Gold now, a long time player in the 12v amp world.

    As far as I'm concerned, take your pick.

    One more ??? What is the difference in the Amp200 and the Amp One/A? It has the same specs, but I can get the Amp One/A for about 75.00 bucks cheaper.

    The 'hundred' models are the current lineup, the one/a is a discontinued model.
