No, you'd need a d4 or d1.

My god, you claim to be on some sort of competition team and you're asking these kinds of questions? You don't understand basic electrical impedance? *facepalm*

Go here: Basic Car Audio Electronics, start at page 1, and read until your eyes bleed then read some more.

have i once said that i was advanced in this.... no... i have been doing this barley even a year. the way that ap was explaining jus confused me i didn say anything else did. i kno d2 cant be wired at 2ohm. and shtuff like that

If you have 2 subs and each is dual 2 ohm you can wire each down to 1 ohm meaning with the ap3000 you could get 1500 to each sub. Or you could run the two 1 ohm subs in series to get a 2 ohm final load and "bridge" the amp and still get 1500 to each sub.

i wont be as abrupt as bubba about it..

but to answer your question... no.. ap wont work for your application.

if your pushing a single hdc3, just pick an AQ2200, you can find it on here for around 300 used... and will push that sub VERY nicely

i mean ive been looking at those as well. jsut tryna look at other options as well

if your looking for good power @ 1ohm on a budget, another good amp to look at is the crescendo bc2000... clamped 2150 @ 1 ohm, for 339 new

Get a sound stream Rubicon 2500, should push your HDC nicely, be a little conservative with your box though, i wouldn't do much more than 6-6.25 subes
