[QUOTE="Flipx99, post: 1039055, member: 562352"] I know you see posts all the time about "what amp do I need" and unfortunately, I am one of them. I have 4 TS2000SPL Pioneer Premier 4 ohm DVC subs. I only want to run 3 of them due to space limitations but will run 4 if I must. The problem I find with 3 dvc is that you have a choice of either 2.67 ohms or .67 ohms. This would mean you would either have to select a 2 ohm stable amp and live with the resistance difference or try and find a .5 ohm stable amp. I would rather choose the .5 ohm stable amp and the only one that is really in my price range is the MMATS 2000.5. Is this route safer than the 2 ohm route? I could also hook up all 4 subs. In that case I would need 2 1-ohm amplifiers. Which isn't really a problem because many manufacturers are going 1-ohm now. Would a standard charging system be able to handle 2 6-900 watt 1-ohm amps and a 50x4 componet amp? It would look like 14.4x3 volts would be required to run the system. ANy thoughts or ideas? I haven't selected the 50x4 amp either but I am looking at the Alpine MRV-F345 (yes I know it is 75x4) Also, what does the board think of alphasonik? Thanks in advance for your help. [/QUOTE]
