[QUOTE="azphat12, post: 6745749, member: 619925"] I would go with the 2 channel. That way if you decide to upgrade the bass later you can use that 2 channel for the midrange possibly... I would also look at where you are putting it. In my experience my mono block amp runs cooler then my 4 channel does. Do not know if this is my setup or what, but if your putting an amp under the seat or something it might be something to consider. Also, if you go the bass knob route.... just set the bass knob to halfway. Adjust the amp gains properly. That is what I did in my wifes car. She turns it down when she rides... I turn it up. And setting it with it already halfway allowed me to stay close to the right readings on the DMM (aka digitial multi meter) when I set the gains to help prevent clipping. A scope would be better obviously, but I do not have one of those, lol. [/QUOTE]
