Help choosing between 2 ohm and 4 ohm Type R....

[Manizzle 10+ year member]

Ok so I am planning on getting this amp, it is rated at 800 rms @ 2 ohms, and the Type R is rated for 750 rms. Which type of Type R would I need to buy if I buy this amp - the 2 ohm Type R or the 4 ohm?

If you are going with one sub, go with the dual 4ohm version. it can be wired down to 2ohm final load, which is what your amp is rated for.
