400x2 at 2 and 800x1 at 4 is exactly the same to the amp.

I'd probably go the bridged route --

^^ u dont know what ur talkin about. its a fantastic budget amp that will never overheat and never go into protection if u have the gain set correctly. u will be extremely pleased with the power that amp puts out.

and like optidriven said, just wire to a 4 ohm load, and bridge it. their should be "bridged" words above the terminals, and that where u hook the pos, and neg up.

i had that exact amp and it was a great starter amp, it rattled the mirrors and did everything i wanted it too, you cant beat its price either, so good pick but i wouldnt get any other audiobahn stuff because this is about the only audiobahn amp ive heard good things about

agreeing, if an amp puts out its rated power then it is a good amp

After that u have 2 worry about quality, and if someone doubts me then take the test

is that the way i wire them for 800x1 rms?

if this is how i do it then can i just run the pos and negative of speaker 1 to bridge pos n neg, then from speaker 2 run the pos n neg straight to the amp or do i actually have to run it to speaker 1s pos n negative?

because audiobahn is prbably the worst company out, and i will do as much as i can to put them under, though they can just lie to all the new people and get them to buy there sh!tty stuff, audiobahn straight up lies. thats it end of this g@y argument and i highly doubt that amp puts 800X1. if you have a bench test ill believe you, and id like to see the THD at 800 watts if can actually get that high
