But do i trust ikesound???? I've heard some horror stories about refurbs people get from them...

Someone was saying they doe 2400 at 2 ohms strapped with 2 but i find that hard to believe, if i had two strapped could i still wire them at 1 ohm with a single dvc 1 ohm speaker???

when 2 amps are strapped and the load is 2 ohm, each amp sees 1ohm so the amp will give 1200w a piece so 1200+1200=2400w RMS @ 2ohm easy as that.

If you have 2 strapped at 4 ohm they will see 2 ohm each, so 800+800=1600w RMS @ 4ohm

Heh...Josh... you'll end up regretting it.. realizing in 2 months, you could have had an extra $200 to put towards something you were going to keep in your car, etc. I've done the whole 'just for now thing' many, many times...and looking back, realize now how much better my system could currently be, if I had just waited that extra month until I could afford what I really wanted.. You should see my parts room.. (I literally have probably 30 feet of various lengths of 0 gauge, and easily 100+ feet of 4 gauge, but none in the lenghts I need.. all from setting things up different ways, and needing diff lenghts of wire, etc..) amps just layin there.. various dist blocks/other accessories I once used, when settling for something just until I could afford better... ugh. So much wasted $.

you'd have to wire your coils in series for 4 ohms - amps would see 2 ohms a piece.

only other option would be series = 1 ohm = each amp sees 1/2 ohm --> not good.
