The transformer looks like the right one.
An SMS-1 could be picked up used for around 400.00. It would help greatly.

Unimpressive sound from Tannoy B475 subwoofer?
I impulse bought two tannoy b475 18" pro subwoofers over the weekend for what seemed like a good price.
Unfortunately, I can't seem to manage to get decent sound out of them. Did I just make a mistake and buy subs that don't perform well, or is there possibly a problem with my setup?
They want 400w-800w. I've tried a crown 800 (bridged) and a jbl synthesis 400 (bridged) and neither made them sound all that hot. The sub signal is coming from a pioneer elite, which isn't the best setup, but seems to drive my mb quart vera sub fairly nicely. The tannoy sounds much worse.
One possible issue: the crown needs a + and - for input, but the sub output is RCA, so I cut the end off a RCA cable and got the +/- from that. Perhaps bad idea?
