[QUOTE="n2audio, post: 59091, member: 540940"] Let me give you a simplified explanation of "ohm's stuff" -- An "ohm" is simply a measure of electrical resistance, the lower the value, the easier it is for electrical current to flow. Since you have 4 ohm subs, you would be able to "bridge" each pair of amp channels on a 4 ch amp into 2 more powerful channels. As would be the case if you use the vibe 430. As far as the amp shutting down. I can't say that it won't. I should add though that I was using the 430 over a year ago, it's possible Lanzar has addressed the thermal protection over-reactivity (IMO) issue. I know they did in the 1200D. But IMO, if you're listening to it at reasonable volumes, I don't think you'll ever have a problem with it over heating. However, if you're say, at a party with the thing cranked I wouldn't be surprised if it starts shutting down on you after an extended period of time. Do huh? [/QUOTE]
