[QUOTE="n2audio, post: 8336144, member: 540940"] Sure -- pretty common cost effective way to get a lot of power to a pair of speakers. SQ would theoretically be reduced slightly as the amp running closer to its minimum impedance would increase THD and reduce damping. But I think the in-car performance will easily trump theory on this one. The thd/damping problem would be slight, and the increase in dynamics and clarity from more power will be significant. I run my comps with a bridged 4 ch as well. Class D amp, and fairly cheap. It has been running w/o any trouble and sounding great for 4 yrs or so. [/QUOTE]
