[QUOTE="shredder2, post: 8647968, member: 674047"] Personally I'd not cheap out on the amp if Sa-10's were being used... if your gonna do 2, and they're d4's... wire em to 1 ohm and put somewhere around 1500 clean watts on em'. Had some 1250 watt Skars and they did well but with less cone and less power the single 15" Sa I'm using seems louder overall with the same basic tune (around cabin freq) the last setup I had got to 149.2 with 2 12" Skars, and I was probably putting around 2X the power to them. I'm really impressed with the power handling of this thing, for a 750 watt sub to take an amp that's rated for over 2K and not burn up the coils within a couple of minutes is an eye opener for me.... I just let em' cool after 3-5 minutes of abuse and they repeat the process without complaint. Just set your levels correctly, box em right and enjoy. Whatever amp you go with... I wouldn't underpower them as looking for more volume MIGHT tempt you to clip em and that WILL kill the things eventually. [/QUOTE]
