[QUOTE="matt_bennett05, post: 7831586, member: 614201"] Music is variable, subs are variable, etc etc. When you wire at 2 ohms and play music all that power fluctuates and so does the ohm load. UP and DOWN. A straight tone, not so much as music but will rise. You can set for a certian area, but that's not what you get 24/7 because it's fluctuating. You also have box rise which in a sense will make whatever your starting ohm load (what you wire @) rise so power decreases. I would wire @ 1 ohm (it will rise remember) and you will have plenty of power on tap. JUST BE SURE to set the gain correctly and you'll be fine as frog hair. [/QUOTE]
