[QUOTE="vaiboy, post: 8510384, member: 570683"] After looking at the PP8EQ I don't think they are bridging the channels. The PP8EQ has four 3Ω coils. They are probably running two coils in parallel on each channel for a 1.5Ω load and a small boost in power over a 2Ω load. If you get a second subwoofer just wire it to it's own channel, when you wire it in parallel it lowers the impedance but it also splits the power so each sub would only get 35W. Really, if you just have to have that amp your best option is to find a DVC sub with 2Ω coils. Honestly though, that whole Match system seems gimmicky and unimpressive, the only advantage it has is the built in DSP, you would be better off getting a second slash amp and a stand alone DSP or getting two of the new AudioControl D-4.800 amp DSP combos.
