[QUOTE="94uhkord, post: 286702, member: 545768"] I don't know who or where you got your car audio know how from, but you only need to look as far as the first post in this thread to get confirmation that I am indeed right and you are wrong. Just look at the specs: 250rms @4ohms 450rms @2ohms both ratings are in stereo so if most amps don't double the power w/half the resistance, what would you call that? Sure, it's not exactly double, but close enough. Check any amp out, the rating at 2ohms will be double or nearly double the rating at 4ohms. And in this case, if you bridge it at 4ohms, the ratings jump up from 250 per ch to 900 coming out of the single channel. So like I said before, doubling the impedance will not double the power, if anything, it'll put out less power due to the increased resistance. [/QUOTE]
