[QUOTE="Phlox, post: 7825599, member: 643201"] Another quick question, the sub is 375w rms, the amps total bridged output is only 120w rms on mono,so the sub is too strong? Will draw too much power from amp? Cause at low volumes even with bass full and gain maxed on amp it plays fine, as soon as the volume goes up a. Bit it cuts out. I know with an old marantz hifi amp i had it will cut out when too much power was drawn through the speakers. 120w rms is probably enough to power it, but not to its full potential , thats how i see it. Might be wrong though as im still a newb with car Amp installs. But the principle is still the same even for home theatre or hifi speakers? I mean its an amp and speakers. One just uses 220v and one uses 12v. [/QUOTE]
