[QUOTE="93civEJ1, post: 7646929, member: 585950"] I have 2 8" 4ohm speakers that I am about to hook up. They are both rated for 300watt RMS each, with a max of 600. I am guessing the best deal would be to hook them up to each other for a 2 ohm load and run a mono amp? Is that what you guys would do? If that is the case can you suggest an amp that would power these two speakers that is not expensive. This is a low budget build. Also, when I have two speakers ran to a mono amp, when you go to set the gains with a DMM, would you set the gain to see 600 watts at the DMM (300 for each sub)...or would you set the gain just until you see 300 watts? Sorry, I am still learning.
