Try one of the many new digital amps...small, very powerful and fast. Some can even be found as mono-block. Of course a stereo unit can also be used with only one channel used unless you added another sub some day.

What sub are you using by the way and how much power do you need? How large is your room?

Not sure why you would want to waste an amp like the Bryston in the first place, subs need no such amp.

I use an Onkyo M-504 to drive my Vmps subs...over-kill to say the least.

That was my point although you said it much better. My Onkyo M-504 has large power meters, at 60hz. and below my Vmps subs hardly draw over 100 watts even at extream volume levels. Those power levels are peak at that!

90% of music is in the 0-50 watt range to be honest.

Something like an $2,500 Bryston for that limited freq. range is a waste of money IMHO.
