Ever heard of a variable called efficiency.

M.S. Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18 Philadelphia, PA Post Number: 8758 Registered: Jul-06	Posted on Wednesday, October 29, 2008 - 06:50 GMT No... that amp can only handle 4 ohm in mono. You have two 4 ohm subs which wire to 2 ohm. The amp will either go into protect or blow pretty quick.
