Ok fellas.
I need an amp to power my Rocket OD100's that are going to be installed on my new deck. Give me some suggestions for a reasonably priced 2 channel amp. Keep in mind the Rockets were only $100 per pair. I don't need a $2,000 amp. Just something I can use with the preouts of my Denon 2805 for Zone 2 to run the Rockets. I have seen Outlaw Monoblocks ($400-500 per pair) Onkyo for $282, Audiosource ($199 at Parts Express) and a Rotel ($400). Does anyone have any experience with any of these or recommend something else.
Please help,
Thanks
Scott

Ummmm, I guess that must be the Onkyo that you've already seen.
Never Mind.

Scott, why not check e-bay for something a little older? I have had great success buying used from there.
Here are over 500 examples currently under $200

What's T Amp? Mark, yes I have thought about the Onkyo. I think it would accomplish what I want to do. The Audiosource at Parts Express also intrigued me. Cheap. I am not sure if it will do the job. That's why I am asking here. I know with all the knowledgable people here on this board, I will get the help I need.

I have the big brother to this amp. I've had it since new, and was still going strong before I went 6.1 and put it in storage.

Scott, I feel your pain.
I've been monitoring Ebay on this topic for about a month, and it seems like anything I want to actually spend my hard-earned dollars on ends up being ~$125 plus shipping at least, regardless of the vintage (HK or Onkyo integrateds, Sony or Yamaha amps, etc.). At the moment, I'm too cheap.

C'mon Tom, you can probably recycle all your beer bottles and come up with $125.
