[QUOTE="K_Watson, post: 7284059, member: 631691"] Hello again. I just got a "decent" amp for my budget build, a Sony Xplod XM-GTX1852 (185 rms x 2 @ 4 ohm), for my two 10" MTX 250w RMS 4 ohm subs in sealed enclosure. First question... 185w RMS into 250w RMS subs... Acceptable match? Second question... RCA preouts on HU are 2.2v, amp is set to ~1.2v to get decent volume, and test tones sound clean... Am I at risk of damaging either at moderatly loud volume rock? Third question... 8 gauge ok for this amp? [/QUOTE]
