[QUOTE="JaeCole, post: 7522175, member: 637358"] Ah thanks. So i'm trying to find out if my current set up is truly underpowered or not. Here are the specs of the xplod amp I have: Rated Power at 4 Ohm Stereo 185W x 2 RMS (20Hz-20kHz, Maximum Power 4 Ohm Stereo Maximum power output of 380W per channel at 4 Ohm. Rated Power at 2 Ohm Stereo 200W x 2 RMS (20Hz-20kHz, Maximum Power 2 Ohm Stereo Maximum power output of 500W per channel at 2 Ohm. Rated Power at 4 Ohm Mono 400W x 1 RMS (20Hz-20kHz, Maximum Power 4 Ohm Mono This unit can be used as a bridging amplifier with a maximum output of 1000W at 4 Ohms. The power rerfence 10s are dual 4ohm, 250 rms. And the guy bridged the amp to connect the two subs. How much rms is my amp feeding the power references? If I don't get the type r's, I want to find an amp that'll push the power references to its max...so I would need to find at least 500 rms x 1 @ 2ohm, yes? I find myself setting the volume 14 to 22 (max is 40) most of the time, and I want it to be at that level with a new amp at maybe volume 6 to 12 [/QUOTE]
