[QUOTE="Climax5, post: 5349388, member: 605216"] Tri-mode is sometimes called 'Mixed Mono Output', not all of the 2 channel amps have this ability but many do, but its an option that is hardly ever used. When you use the proper crossovers its possible for the sub to receive 4 times the out put that would go to the regular speakers. If this is enough bass for someone a separate bass amplifier wouldn't be necessary. For instance if you took the larger old school precision power PC21400, one could design a high pass crossover with a volume slide to reduce the wattage to component speakers (no reason to send over 300 watts rms to one of those anyways) while the sub would still be getting roughly over 1000watts.
