2K? Really? Well, if you must. Why when 300 t0 500 will work just fine!
I recommend the Pride DX-300! Justin modified mine and I run it on low power only (900 watts on high, but DIRTY). It uses a single 4CX250B tube, at a cost that seems to average $100.00 and will last you 20 years if you take care of it. I picked up a replacement, new in the box, for $5.00! The guys running glass tubes and blowing them up are ABUSING their equipment! Run a Toyota at 10,000 RPMs and see how long it lasts too.
I've hung in there with guys running their SB-220s and dirt boxes (transistor). Everyone says I sound great, and other than s-meter readings, they can't tell the amplifier is on ..... the way it is supposed to be!
Transistor amps in the house is a BAD idea unless you live in the middle of nowhere or have enough money to really do it right.
Or, you can have the average CB mentality, not care about the band or your neighbors, and really tear up the world with your 2 driving 8! :twisted:
