[QUOTE="BoomTaco64, post: 8240754, member: 659681"] look into what you are telling him to do...you are saying to sync his amp not strap his amp. "strapping" amps together will take two 2000w amps at 1ohm and "strapped" together will give you 4000w at 2ohm.... "syncing" amps will give you the ability to control tuning with one amp as long the amps can be synced together. master/slave... READ THIS: via ChevyBoy95 on smd forums.. strapping is when you wire two amplifiers together (generally have a connection cable specifically for this) to achieve the power of both amps together. It essentially turns 2 amps into 1 big amp. You use the master amplifiers (amp 1) settings to control the slave amp (amp 2).

Strapping is almost like bridging channels, but instead you are bridging amplifiers. 2 2000w amps not strapped (1 ohm each) = 4000w 2 2000w amps strapped (2 ohm) = 4000w I do not want to hi-jack anymore of this guys thread....look into "strapping amps" and see if its good for you. not for me at all and is not easier IMO.
