i have a question, is the sublime amp useable on any other speaker other hen the subette? i would love to use two or more to power some speakers so they have there own power source and look beter then just one amp next to my table with cables coming from speakers. the reason i thought of this is because sometimes i see speakers hooked up to a seperate amp at shows which i do believe is done with power amps but this could work too right? or is it overkill?

Sublime is a subwoofer amp. It's not intended to work with full range speakers. So if you are asking about using the Sublime with other subwoofers, yes, it will work. But it's not the right choice for main speakers.

There are loads and loads of small full range chip based amps like what the Sublime uses.  It's tough for us to repackage something that generic and assess a markup when you can go onto Amazon and get the same thing for a lot less money.
