[QUOTE="n2audio, post: 4679347, member: 540940"] If the older RE8's are 175w you're looking at 700-800w at 1 ohm, but you're going to have a lot more options at 1000w so I'd just go that route and set the gain accordingly. You can find a Hifonics bxi1206d or a Lanzar Opti 1400D for around $200, or you could step up to the Audioque AQ1200D for $250. There are plenty of options -- your budget has a lot to do with it. Your wiring would look like this -- [IMG]http://mobile.jlaudio.com/graphics/Support/Tutorials/wiring_images/SVC_Parallel_4.gif[/IMG] FWIW - you could also wire them for 4 ohms and go with a large 2 ch amp that will give you ~800w bridged. Wiring for that... [IMG]http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/woofer_wizard/4_4ohmSVC_4ohm.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
