[QUOTE="phidoux, post: 425367, member: 550875"] I picked up a 1001bd amp, and one Power HX2 12" sub. Keep in mind these are both last years models. I was wondering what the best way to wire it up is? Is it going to be not putting out as much because it's only going to one sub? Or should I get a second sub, in order to get the full power out of the amp, going to each sub. These are the stats on the amp. Per channel power 500 W X 1 @ 4 Ohms RMS 1000 W X 1 @ 2 Ohms RMS Total power RMS 500 Watts RMS So does that mean that in the per channel power the 1000w @ 2 ohms is peak or RMS? Because if that is rms, then doesn't that mean that I can hook it up to my one dual 2ohm sub and give it 1000w rms? I'm thinking I got burned when I bought the 1001bd amp with the hx2, since there is no way to make the amp give out the power that the sub wants. [/QUOTE]
