While I've made a few digressions into pro amps (Crown XTI2000, Peavey iPR-3000), I keep coming back to the Engne Tang designed class G rack amp that's sold mostly as the Dayton SA1000 but is or has also been sold as the Snell SPA-750, Leon Speakers L3-1K, etc. I'm currently using two of them, along with an O-Audio 500W BASH plate amp (another amp I like quite a bit), for my 3-sub system. The reasons are as follows:
-It has enough power for my needs
-Doesn't require more voltage for full output than an unbalanced miniDSP can provide
-Looks "high end"
-Standard RCA I/O
-Is quiet in operation with no fans (and no transformer hum, so long as you get a good one)
-Has a continuous phase control and rudimentary parametric EQ for systems that aren't using an external processor
-Useful convenience features such as 12V triggers.
My only negative about it is that it has old-fashioned binding post speaker outputs, instead of a modern SpeakOn connector.
True, I'd be using a fan-modded IPR-3000 right now instead of two of these amps, but my IPR-3000 interacted strangely with my signal-sensing power strip, creating hum when plugged in there but not when plugged in anywhere else.. Given that I'm neither going to waste energy by leaving it idle, nor will I manually turn it on/off (my "equipment rack" is the space underneath a daybed, because I like my audio kit heard and not seen), I had to replace it with something more suitable.
I've never used any of the really top-tier Class D amps (Lab, Powersoft, Camco, Ashly, etc) though. I'd never buy a "clone" amp, on principle. (I would consider a "Sanway," if they had good technology, good reliability, and weren't trying to make everyone think they're Labs.)
