Need suggestions for power amp?

[foreverdown]

So I have decided after trying them out today to go with the KRK ST8's. This is great an all, but I need a power amp now. I was looking at some Alesis RA-100's because they are going fairly cheap on ebay. Do you think this would be a good choice? If not, what are some suggestions you have. I don't have any problems with used, and I'd like to stay under 150.

Thanks!

A used Hafler would be my first choice in that range.

What are you going to use the power amp for?

Hey, foreverdown.

I've got one of these, and it kicks. It has 200 very clean watts per channel. If I decide to get passive monitors, I'll move it from the living room to the studio.

I'm going to use it for my monitors. ST8's

I own a pair of the KRK RP8's and am very happy. Why don't you buy the RP8's instead of the ST8's. They're easier to setup and sound better because the amp is matched to the drivers. You'll be spending about the same money.

that's an extra 100-150 bucks

I picked up a hafler dh200 off of ebay for cheap. I'll let you know how it sounds when it arrives.
