Power amp for Peavey Sp2

We just got 2 peavey sp2. And for now we use my Tapco J1400 power amp. This is my bass back up amp. And it is not that loud. What amp would you suggest for these speakers.

Sp2s:
RMS 500watts
Program 1000 wats
Peak 2000

P.S. We are thinking about adding 2 subs and an amp to run them may be next year and use it to run our own shows.

Very Basic Power Amp Question

Hello Everyone.

I should know this, and probably did at one time, but...

when using passive monitors with a power amp, should I set the gain on the amp to full and adjust the input for a comfortable db level (85db or so), or should I set the console output for unity gain and adjust the power amp to the desired level?

My old POOGE-II power amp (modded Hafler DH-200) lost the right channel the other day. I haven't gotten it on the bench to determine the cause (no visible kablamo's) but, if the Hitachi power mosfets puked, I'm probably SOL.

What's a good quality, neutral-sounding, 200 WPC amp these days? I can't put multi-K$ into this, either (got a kid starting college next month...)
