    I own a Peavey Firebass 700, and I need to buy a poweramp for my crossover high output. I'm looking for something cheap that'll give about say 200-250W bridged...Any suggestions? Everything I find is either like 43986937053745 watts or 0.0000001W

    Carvin DCM600, $319.99 brand new, a bit more than your specified power need but that should not be a bad thing . . . . ;)

    Next one down is the DCM150 at $229.99, which is less than your specified amount, but depending on the crossover point you will be using, it might still do the job just fine.

    studio monitors amps are in that range of power.

    Check out Alesis or Samson.

    They sound very pure, Hi-fi tone!
