which amp

[rustyc]

i have galaxy 979 with 75 watt mosfet up grade which amp would work with this radio i have been through 2 i am told it will take at least a texas star 500v because of the drive anybody anything else that would work

I've had numerous TS and X-Force amps. I personally like the TNT series from X-Force. The TNT350HD would be a good one for it.

Agree with Binrat on this. Those TNT amps are a great value for performance but don't knock TS either.

75 watts pep SSB radio ..... texas star sweet 16 . about a 10 DB gain .
similar to going from a typical 979 to one with a 2 pill behind it .

Im running a MF 350 here and its a good amp...
Ive had it now about 4 years now I guess...

But its been used mostly on a power supply and used as a driver, does a great job....think one of these would be the best bang for the bucks, just my .02...

will you be talking Am mostly or SSB?

 

[mackmobile43]

Any amp with less than eight 100 watt output devices should not be considered.

i had a 93t kicking into a ts 500 and it was a great combination.the radio was doing around 80 watts.so that would be my pick.like binrat said,the tnt amps are good too.

Who did the radio for you and is it doing an honest 75 watts PEP? My money would be on the TnT 350 or TnT 600.

If you are running 80 watts into a Texas Star 500, how many finals/input resistors/variables have you blown in that amp. The 500s weren't designed for that drive.

Texas star sweet 16 would be perfect behind that radio if it was tuned properly.
