[QUOTE="quackhead, post: 7797300, member: 573547"] Awesome amps. I understand you are trying to utilize the equipment you have, and as far as quality, PPI is that. If the amps are in working order, I would be looking for a set of SVC 4 ohm subs to wire to each A600.2 bridged mono @4ohms...The only reason I would advise against going 2ohms mono is the age of the caps in the equipment. There again, The monoblock class D can be very efficient if the right one is chosen. Sure they all advertise 85% + in efficiency at 4ohms. You get into running these class D's at 1ohm and then you are back down in the 60%-70% range, which at just 1200 watts can be 30 - 40amps of current draw difference than at the 4ohm rating.... it is like a 1ohm class d can be compared to a good class A/B at 4ohms in terms of power efficiency.
