AC to DC Power Supply to run a ZX350

I thinking that I am going to use my spare ZX350 to run my Cyclone in my Home Theater. (My poor Cyclone has been sitting around with nowhere to use it since I bought it 3 years ago)

Obviously I need a power Supply to run run the ZX350. I have seen some threads about using PG equipment in home audio, but most them are doing a whole system. I think that I would only need a 40-50 amp power supply. Does anyone have any PS recommendations for this?

40-50 would be more than enough, i would say a 20 amp would be just fine..

I think Matt ( Mhyde71 ) might have one that will fit your needs....and 40 - 50 amp should be more than sufficient for running a ZX350.

one thing i would do while running a power supply is to check the voltage while your pushing it pretty hard. you don't want big voltage drops its not good for the amp. for example my brother ran a 3000 watt mmats amp on a 80 amp power supply while pushing a ground zero 15 and now his amp is messed up. he really over drove the amp and i think he burnt up some transistors but im sure if you set your gains for the least amount of voltage drop you would be fine.
