Best Bass amp


I was wondering in a 2-way setup(Classe CA-400on mid/hi) which would be best on my dual Volt 12's/side(30-380hz),Krell KSA 250,300s,fpb300(would love a 600)?I do not want to spend any more than $2-$3000.There is a fresh rebuilt KSA 250 a couple hours away but did not want to under power or if a 300s would be better?The 12's are 300watts each but have put a Bryston 14bsst on them with good results in the past,just wanted to try the famous krell bass.
Any advice
thanks John

If you don't mind the heat the KSA-250 will put out it will more than control your speaker. I used them on old B&W 801 Matrix 3's (89db efficient) and the KAS rocked! This amp can easily drive a 2 ohm load; you will have no problem. I used a Jeff Rowland Consummate preamp and I think of all the equipment I have been through; Krell FPB 300; 600, KPS-25sc with FPB 650 monos, then FPB 750 mono's with a KCT and the KSA still holds its own. If you have a good musical preamp and good cabling you will be please. My favorite all time Krell system was my 750 monos and the KCT. Wish I still owned them to drive my Wilson MAXX 2's; best bass ever.
