Hi all

I would like to get a moble amp for my Galaxy DX 93T in the next couple of months. I have read on this forum suggestions for bigger amps than I want at this time.(ie. sweet sixteen etc.) I'm looking for something in the 350-500w range that I can use for ssb.

Thanks in advance.

Lyn

The Texas Star DX500 would work.

Daves Made, there is no finer mobile amp. You can get a one driving two, or a one driving 4, I have had both, and they scream.

if you want to sound nice and clean stay way from the class c competition amps like the dave mades ect,palomars seem to be lacking as well.

ive always had good audio reports with texas star equipment.

and you will need a amp that will take the drive level that radio puts out. id stay way from any one pill driving 4 pill and instead go with a straight 4 pill amp.

id look into the dx500 671 mentioned!

im not very familar with it myself but im sure he is.

TX Satr is definetly the way to go!! If you can get an older one from like 10 years ago or so they are even better than whats made today! I have owned them all aside from the 1200 and 1600 and liked them all but my overall fave was the DX 500..... :-)

I currently have the TS 667v but for your radio I would lean toward the Magna Force. They are the same as the X-Force but with SSB and different switches. Kinda like Chevy and GMC. It has a built in fan that I wish the Texas Star had.

I used to have an X-Force box (8 pill) that was a great box. Have had several Texas Stars, wasnt impressed with them.
