AMP + SUB power question

[generalGOTCHA 10+ year member]

Ok, I have two 500Watt RMS, 1000WP2P Orion P series subwoofers.

Doesnt this mean I can hit them with a 1000Watts RMS amplifier while their bridged without blowing them ?

I understand P = I^2 * Voltage but since the amp only rates itself in watts .. err I havent done ohm law in a long time.

what the hell does ohm's law have to do with anything here? your subs are 500 watts rms so yes you can give a pair 1000 watts

it all depends on the voice coil. dual 4 ohm, 2 ohm... etc. Every sub is connected a different way. lol ohm law.

I ended up figuring it out when I was sleeping and woke up with my own answer. I was tired when I made this post.. here at work //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
