[QUOTE="WannaKatana2, post: 8859964, member: 690012"] Ok I screwed up. Subs dual voice coil 4 ohm each so 1 ohm wiring the two subs together. Amp 500x1 4ohm 930x1 2ohm 1700x1 1 ohm I got the wrong amp. It's 1700watts into 1 ohm to the 2 subs with a maximum of 1200 watts (600 each). Can I use an overpowered amp if I turn the gain all the way down for example or is the risk too high to damage the subs? I can return the amp and get a 1200watt into 1 ohm if I have to. [/QUOTE]
