[QUOTE="n2audio, post: 4683931, member: 540940"] Something I forgot to mention, and for your benefit as a newbie... That "1850w" amp -- not 1850w at all, not even in the vicinity. 1850w is some ambiguous number the marketing department thought they could sell. Unless a power rating clearly states RMS it tells you nothing about how powerful the amp actually is. Some cheap brands will even get out of hand with their RMS ratings which is another reason the budget gear is hit-or-miss at best. Max, peak, dynamic etc -- same story for all of them. Same goes for speakers. If you read through the specs on that "1850w" amp it says right there that it's 350w and for $135 that's about what you're going to get. Well, the "1000w (peak)" Visonik 10's (108d4's) are 500w rms, so if OP's 10's are "2000w (peak)" it seems pretty likely ~400w won't be a problem. Just out of curiousity -- What's the model number of your subs pw0nz3rd? [/QUOTE]
