Its not a BAD 500 watt amp... I think it is 4 ohm bridged 2 ohm stereo amp... here is the manual... it should do over rated power...

I run something similar on my highs... good clean power... I have another sitting behind me... I ran 2 10's on 2 of those basically same amps previously... RE SE* 10D2's and they did fine and got pretty loud... that's 500 per sub... so don't expect Too much...

I used to run those all rf's bridged at 2ohm alot.

They will get hot as hell, but usually keep ticking. Mine used to protect every so often.

But no, they arent stable at 2

This is a RF 500s... pretty much the same amp, it's a 2 channel as well and it failed at 4 ohm nominal bridged... sh*t happens... LOL!.. 2 ohm bridged IS possible but not recommended...

this is the line that came out right when i quit working at ultimate electronics, ticked me off that they started putting max power ratings on the front , but these amps were built solid as hell. One of the last lines of the old school stuff and i dont think anyone can say you got taken if you only paid $60 for it. Did the person selling it to you do you any real favors? Not really, but you didnt get ripped off if it works and stays working for a while. This is what people are talking about when they say "george foreman RF amps". Specs mentioned above are correct and they will indeed do more than they say they will. I know the birth sheets from RF arent always 100% truthful, but i do recall the 700s's birthsheets being consistently over 1000 watts for a "700 watt" amp

Okay so I need a 2 ohm dvc sub not the 4 ohm one I have now?
