“I vote to put a second amp module in the RF Deck…”

And the advantage here is that (according to the KPA500 schematic) the control hardware is already in place  :^)

Eric,
Hallelujah!  First acknowledgment of such a possibility!  I vote to put a
second amp module in the RF Deck (i.e., an RF deck that is the same as the
total size of the KPA500) and have a separate switching supply in another
box. 1200-1300 watts would be a sweet spot if 1.5K is a problem.  Shoot for
30 pounds or under.

Interesting discussion.

Folks, if we did introduce a 1500 W solid state amp similar to our KPA500 in
operation, what features etc would be important?
