Don't flame me here. But you might consider a pro audio amplifier. The switch mode (Class D) pro amplifiers can deliver boatloads of current and are designed to work reliably into low Z loads. They have come a very long way in the past five or so years and some of the better designed units some very similar to the switch mode audiophile amps....seriously. Downside is that many (most?) are fan-cooled, so this may be an issue.
Hybrid - Tube / SS amp capable of sub 1 Ohm loads?
I've done searches and haven't found anything that really discusses this.
There are a few options that I've seen that are Hybrid that will do this, for example:The Conrad Johnson Evolution 2000.
That amp is getting old, is there anything more modern that will accomplish this? Am I chasing a pipe dream here? The Lamm series claims to be able to do it but it will not in reality. I know people that has had these and tried to run them on an Apogee Scintilla and it pooped out.
There might be some tube-amps that can operate with a such load, but they are more voltage driven, not current and the Scintilla needs current.
Thanks
Pete
