[QUOTE="jrpro130, post: 1577834, member: 563425"] Okay, I have a hifonics bx1605D hooked up at nominal 1 ohms (I have dual 4 ohm subs wired to 2 ohms each, wired to 1 ohm nominal) and it's not doing the job. I don't get a lot of excursion at all and I really need MORE POWER!!! [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/yumyum.gif.0556df42231b304b9c995aefd13928a8.gif[/IMG] With box rise, I'm reading 5 ohms on the DMM, which I am guessing is wrong, but you never know. My DMM hasn't been treated nicely. So, I'm guessing about 1.7-2oms after rise I was thinking about a PA A3000DB, but it doesn't seem like it would be enough, I mean, if it came down to it, could I strap them, and how easy would it be? If each does 1800 @ 2 oms, that means I will have 3600 @ 2 ohms. This is a competition setup and I will be very easy on the gains for DD. I just don't get why I'm not getting that much excursion off the amp, I thought "1600" watts would be a lot better than it is...here's the vid if anyones interested to see the excursion...
