[QUOTE="bumpasauras, post: 8259013, member: 607820"] Well when strapping 2 amps you have to take the lowest single amp impeadence (.5) with this amp and double it (so 1 ohm) and that is the lowest impeadence you can run them strapped. If you want each amp to see an impeadence of 1 ohm than you will need to wire them to 2 ohm which will give you a 1 ohm load for each amp thus whatever power rating the amp has at 1 ohm is what each amp will be putting out so yes the power will double .. More or less. Just remember whatever your final load is divide by 2 and that is what each amp is operating at. So if you don't wanna run the amps in .5 than 2 ohm is as low as you will want to go so that each amp is running in 1 ohm (similar to bridging a 2 channle amp) I think the ct puts out 1400 at 1 so strapped at 2 ohm you will b seeing about 2800 rms.. Be carefull because even 2800 rms requires quite a bit of current so make sure your electrical will support it cause you are risking 2 amps to low voltage otherwise . [/QUOTE]
