[QUOTE="CBFryman2, post: 1533084, member: 565445"] i learned exactly nothing from that. and his logic is off. Running an amp that could possibly produceing 1000W @ 1ohm (especially when trying to get loud) @ 8ohm to only yeild 125w is like having lance armstrong pedal a single speed tall geared bike up a hill. Not like not using all your money in bank accound. The power potential is there but you dont have the torque to acheive it. Also, rating 4ohm driver rated at 2.83v with a 90dB efficency compared to an 8ohm driver with the same efficency at 2.83v is mroe like the 4ohm driver having a 87dB efficency since the true SPL rating is sapposed to be 1w/1m not 2.83v/1m also, the drive wont get twice as loud, it will be 3dB louder with the same given power input which you just slashed in half because you are running your amp at a higher impeadance so sonic output will essentially be the same. all othe things equal. all in all just get 8 8ohm drivers and call it a day [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
