> Hercules II.......what supply has you found works well with this amp?

A pair of Astron RS-70M's wired up in parallel with the sense lead
of both PS units connected over to the input terminal of the Herc
will operate it just fine.  You will have up to 100 amps continuous
from the pair,  and 130 or so amps on peaks,  if needed!  Used
this set up,  not with a TT Herc,  but with a Henry SS750 for
a few years.

You need to use #4 battery type cable with these power supplies;
quite different from the TT supply which is a number in parallel
also,  but each feeds a separate amp in the Hercules unit as 
standard procedure.  I suppose you also could use a number of
lower current supplies,  each feeding into the provided separate
amp terminals on the Herc.....IF I understand its' set up correctly,  hi.
Not sure how then you would get them all regulated to the same
voltage and current.....maybe not necessary??
