Rockford Fosgate Punch 1000x5 Channel amp Help

[dab86 10+ year member]

Question,

I have the P1000x5 Amp.....The specs for the amp are below.....All numbers are RMS. Can I get 700 watts out of the sub channel if I wire each 4 channel to 75 watts @ 4 -ohm (Total of 300) and the sub channel to 1 ohm? Or is the sub channel limited to only 500 watts no matter what?

I figured if you subtract the door speakers (300) from 1000 you are left with 700? Not sure if it works that way or not.

I am powering two 10 inch P3 Subs

RockFord Fosgate Punch 1000x5

75 Watts x 4 + 150 Watts x 1 @ 4-Ohm

125 Watts x 4 + 300 Watts x 1 @ 2-Ohm

N/A + 500 Watts x 1 @ 1-Ohm

That *****. The amp is already installed and running my system. The subs are rates 500rms each so 1000 rms total. They are only half powered //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Could I buy a mono 1000 amp and run it along with the 5 channel? Jus disconnect the sub channel on the 5 channel?
