[QUOTE="Doxquzme, post: 8877380, member: 689267"] I've just learned over the years, it's less cost up front to go less expensive, it's always expensive to go cheap. I have a Soundigital EVOPS 2400.1 2 ohm model that gets 1590 watts at 4 ohms, 2400.1 at 1 for two 33v2's that have a combined RMS rating of 800. watts. Plenty of wiggle room, efficient operation, better control (damping) and smaller footprint than the Hooligan HKO 3000 that it replaced. I ran that at 4 ohms too, just cooler, and they don't work as hard and are at peak efficiency. It's kind of like a winch. If you have a 2500 lb boat, if you can, are you not better off using a 5000 pound capacity winch? The minimum will get you there but for how long? Excess power is crazy cheap these days, even decent crazy power! [/QUOTE]
