[QUOTE="phyphoestilic, post: 2729329, member: 569258"] Right, check the sticky at the top of the page for a tutorial on setting ur gain to make sure ur sub only see's 500 watts (or 550). I have heard people running 1,000 rms+ to a Type-R. Wire it to 2ohms, then set ur gains correclty so the sub isn't seeing more then 500-600rms. But if u ever decided to u can maybe push 750 to it to test it out. Gives u some space to work with, then if u get another Dual4ohm Type-R u can wire them together to 1ohm and push each with 800rms, or set ur gains and push them with 500 each. Of course all this is assuming the amp puts out at least its specs (which the Hifonics have been known to be a little overrated with, so expect around 500 @ 4, 1000 @ 2, and 1500 @ 1) [/QUOTE]
