[QUOTE="psycho72, post: 654813, member: 558429"] I keep reading people posting get this get that it'll be 1000watts (500 each speak) or 1500 (750 each speak). Lets say for arguments sake I had X amp that was 2ohm stable rated at 200x2 @4 Ohms, that would mean if I bridged it that would be in the neighborhood of 400x1@4Ohms and if I were to show it a 2Ohm load that would put power near 800wx1@2Ohms, correct? Then I have two Y subs, 15 inch dvc's. I then wire the subs together for a 4 Ohm load and connect my amp. As the amp is bridged it sees half of whatever load is attached. A 4Ohm load becomes 2Ohm and a 2Ohm load becomes 1 Ohm. Is this correct so far? So then I have it all hooked up and my amp is putting out 800x1@2 Ohms and I connect my speaks which are showing a 4 Ohm load which the bridged amp only sees half of so as far as the amps is concerned it is putting out 800x1@2Ohms. Now should'nt the speaks be getting 800w each as it is the same load same circuit and the amp is dumping 800 watts out. Energy does'nt give a F about how many speaks it only cares about how easy it is to flow through the circuit and complete it, right? Please set me straight on this. [/QUOTE]
