[QUOTE="ahole-ic, post: 7640221, member: 619324"] So do they strap in parallel? I guess I didn't realize how many amps do that. If the AQ's are Korean boards I don't think they would work at all if wired wrong. I could be wrong but I believe they all strap in series in half-bridge mode. The negatives of each amp are connected together. The master amp's positive output is the positive output and the slave's positive output is the negative. Without the slave, the master would not be in half-bridge mode, but it's negative would be connected to the slave amp and not the woofers. So he might blow one or both amps, but there shouldn't be any output to the woofers. [/QUOTE]
