[QUOTE="DejaWiz, post: 2982774, member: 569941"] Thank you for the clarification. Now, back on topic... the reason I suggested running the amp at 2 Ohms with that L7 is because a potential 900-1000W RMS is going to make that sub get up and dance just as much as a potential 1400-1500W RMS will. Doesn't matter much either way, because the amp gain will have to be set in a manner to not allow the sub to exceed its thermal and mechanical limitations in a given install as well as not send a clipped signal. This will have to be adhered to regardless if the amp load is 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, etc, etc etc Ohms. I picked 2 Ohms solely for the fact that it should provide enough power for the 12" L7, the amp should produce less heat, and the amp should potentially draw less current. [/QUOTE]
