Welcome to CK diminga!
This amp is big for a reason. It's designed for high powered subwoofer applications. The current draw on this amp is HUGE!!! (Fused at 160 Amperes and no stock electrical system can handle that)
This one?

You say midbass speakers? How many and how large of a system do you have now?
Say a lot more about your plans,

If that amp can actually live up to 500Wx2...it's only designed for subwoofers---and Class D amps are going to be a better use of your money.
1000W of heat at 45% efficiency will mean both massive current load and that just isn't a worthwhile use of your electrical system.
What speakers are you planning on using? Detail for us a little more about your system.

Yeah, I think this is a real power sucking amp. As you say, Class A/B and fused at 40 x 4 = 160A at full power (1500 Wrms bridged at 4 ohms or 750 x 2 @ 2 ohms/channel)
Depending on the frequency range you will be using, it's usable for Midbass or Sub applications. However, if you go MB, you'll need a LPF add on @ 300 Hz.
