   Hey Speakerplans gang
I need some advice, can anyone recommend a good amp for my compression drivers (spec below)

Power Handling

80W
"Nominal"

Voice Coil Diameter

75mm / 3"

Normal Impedance

8 Ohms

Winding Material

Edge wound Aluminum

Former Material

Kapton

Flux Density

1.9T

Sensitivity 1W/1M

110dB

Recommended
Crossover Frequency

800Hz w/ BW24

Frequency Range

500-18,000

I need an amp that can power 4 of these reliably in a 1u rack preferably but a 2u will do also 

I have done a bit of searching and found some posts recommending Samson amplifiers but they dont seem rugged enough, i also found Citronic but have not found too much good press regarding them on this forum 

Would a Matrix GT800FX be overkill?

Thanks in advance
