so my only option is to buy a more powerful amp?? that sucks that the amp is rated 2200 watts at one ohm and i am not using it to its full potential. dj said at a 1.6 ohm load the amp will read 3 ohm due to amp rise. thats only like 1000 watts. what should i do? i was thinking of strapping 2 aq2200ds together if i have to. to me its kind of a waste to have a 2200 watt amp and only use 1000 watts of it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif
