[QUOTE="audiobaun, post: 8795765, member: 634282"] I have two of these sub amps along with the 150.4amplifier and theyre EQ. This 2k is a really powerful amp for what it is. Its a beast. Those subs are great subs as well wired correctly and tuned properly in an enclosure. I give my subs at least 3 weeks to loosen up then Tune the amplifier again. I have had one on a pair of 12"XFL DVC 4 ohm subs @1 ohm load and a single XFL 12 DVC2 sub. That amp gets down as well as the subs. CT Sounds make really great gear for the money and Excellent Customer Service. I also have a pair of S.Qubed DVC 2 ohm HDS310s in 4.0@32 Htz and going to place those in soon for temp set up @2 ohms.Its a great amplifier, those subs are really nice subs too.Just a poor decision to run those subs @0.50 Ohms especially if that cars existing Electrical hasnt been upgraded (Big 3 as well as battery bank on tap and maybe a larger aftermarket Alternator)? As Ive said in so many post on this site.. " It Takes Power To Make Power". Thats a hell of an amp to take the 0.50 ohm load and still working. Run the proper Ohm load specified for the amplifier or do not and cook that amplifier and VOID the Warranty and have a Door Prop.You lost the Warranty on the subs By CT Sounds with the improper ohm load.
