Memphis or arc

[843powerstroke]

I recently traded my arc 500.1 amp and some cash for a memphis belle amp. I have two memphis 12" m3 subwoofers in a ported box wired at 1ohm. The memphis amp is a five channel but i am only using it for the subs. I was wanting some advice on which amp would be better in my situation because i have a chance to get that arc amp back.

Arc

The Memphis will produce more power at 1ohm than the Arc.

1100Wrms as opposed to 500Wrms.

And I doubt a manufacturer like Arc, would severely underrate their amplifiers THAT much.

As far as SQ is concerned, there probably wouldn't be a noticeable difference, and the M3s aren't exactly SQ woofers anyway..

Big bell or Baby bell? I would keep the bell and use the 4ch in it. I have used one for a year and loved it.
