[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8557217, member: 650438"] lmao at the little league player putting on regurgitated information. Everyone knows that even if you have optimal electrical conditions, wiring at 1 ohm, your 2000 watt amp will still not net you 2000 watts due to both box rise along with efficiency, if you wire to half ohm, efficiency tanks even more but rise is slightly less, still overall a net gain if the amp and electrical system can handle it. Thats why if a sub calls for 2000 watts rms, Most veterans just use a 3.5k amp or bigger and leave headroom for better efficiency and thd. plain and simple. [/QUOTE]
