[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 2471582, member: 555320"] Max power is completely meaningless. You have (according to the specs you posted) a 460w RMS amplifier. Forget about max power. Ignore it. Erase it from your mind. The only power figures that matter are the "RMS" figures. But, since you were fixated on Max power....is 800w the "RMS" or "Max" power handling of your subs? What is the impedance of your subs? Dual or single voice coils? It would be beneficial if you could list the exact model # for the subwoofers. Assuming your subs are capable of presenting a single 4ohm load individually, and you ran one of those amps to each sub.....yes, each sub would receive 460w RMS. Upgrade to 4ga if you plan on running more power. [/QUOTE]
