[QUOTE="McGuyver, post: 333920, member: 550748"] This is Audiobahns reply:If your subs are the AW1008Q subs they are dual 2ohm voice coils. If each sub is wired in parallel they are 1ohm each so the amp will be running in 1ohm stereo if you have 1sub per channel. Running the amp at that load requires quite a bit of power. The max amperage draw of the A2200HCT amp is 120amps. The max draw of the A4004T is 40 amps. You will need a under hood fuse that is 160amps to 180amps depending on how long the power wire from the battery to the amps are. [/QUOTE]
