[QUOTE="TheUnderFighter, post: 7794898, member: 631325"] [quote name='cobaltitaliano']I think I am going to go with the sundown 10" e series (2 of them) 4 ohm subs and the aq1200d amp. So with that amp I am able to knob the settings of the amount of wattage I want. So for example, the subs I am getting are 400 watt rms a piece, I am able to set that amp to 800 watts rms to power the dual subs just by turning the knob...that easy?[/QUOTE] Yes, it's that easy.
