[QUOTE="cleansoundzz, post: 5642969, member: 589711"] I had a chance this morning to swap out my 10 inch Kicker CVX's for my 10 inch Crossfire BMF's and my PPI PC 1800.2 (mono block) for my PCX 2200 (2 channel) and here are my observations. The 2 channel amp picked up more musical tones and the bass was not as muddled. There was better subwoofer control on my music when using the 2 channel amplifier. Not that the 2 channel is better than the mono block for bass, but it in my mind was clearly noticeable immediately. Secondly what surprised me the most was that my 10 inch Crossfire BMF's hit the lows much much better and had better bass response overall. Not a knock on Kicker but just an observation. I listen to r&b, reggae and oldies 99% of the time so the 2 channel seems to handle this music better. For rap, I think a 2 channel or mono block will be suitable. If a monoblock is used for music that isn't rap then running the amp at a 1 ohm load takes away from the sq of the bass. When riding to work this morning and using the 2 channel for about 35 minutes it didn't get too warm and my lights didn't blink too much if any. I want to thank you guys for your insights and comments about 2 channel, monoblocks and 800 watts because it worked out really well for me. One thing for sure is that you guys all know what you are talking about. [/QUOTE]
