I have a Klipsch Sub-10 subwoofer in which the plate amp died years ago.
Am i better off buying another plate amp or something external?
Can i have some ideas of what people run for their subs? The original amp was 230W RMS.

I use a Berhinger Inuke 1000 with DSP that works a lot better than a plate amp (was using a the top of the range BK plate amp) due to the amount of control you have over the bass but might be overkill
You have to do a mod to the fan as its very noisy so understand if you not want to go this route ( I have taken the fan out of the system as these amps are meant for driving pa systems so no heat issues)
You could also get something like a Rotel power amp and use a external active crossover as another alternative

I don't mind if i have to open it up to mod/remove the fan. The Behringer looks good except it's $400-500 over in Australia.
I've had a look online and the can be bought for under $250 in the U.S. but i cant run them cause they are 110V not 240V.
I'd love a Rotel but they are a bit more than what i'd like to spend. If i went that far i'd probably be buying/building a different sub to run.
I don't suppose you have any 240V suggestions. Preferably something below $300 if possible.

The Crown XLS1000 seems to have multiple voltage input and crossover built in.
Do you think this would be OK still? Is it as good as the behringer?
The Crown is supposed to be good you might have similar issues with the fan
