i got out of car audio for a while so i forgot a few things.

im looking at buying this amp

http://cgi.ebay.com/MA-AUDIO-HK-1998-1200-WATT-MONO-CAR-AMP-AMPLIFIER-AMPS_W0QQi temZ120344491555QQcmdZViewItem

its an MA Audio HK-1998 1200 w amp, it says
1 X 1200W RMS @ 1-ohm Mono

i have 2 4 ohm Kicker CVRs that i can wire down to 1 ohm. Mono means i can bridge my subs right?

im a little confused, will that amp work for what ive got?

well the specs are:

1 X 1200W RMS @ 1-ohm Mono
1 X 600W RMS @ 2-ohm mono
1 X 500W RMS @ 4-ohm Mono

1200 is a bit too much for cvr's but you will prob. only see 1000 maybe out of the amp anyways. So you will be fine

MA audio amps are complete junk, don't buy that



But yes if the subs are dual 4 ohm you can wire two of them to 1 ohm.... all positives to amp + and all negatives to - easy.




Oh and

lol i didnt get the amp.
turns out, my amp wasnt even broken. I think its a wiring problem, i have no idea what it is. just stopped working one day. the power light on both amps stayed off.

i have a 'front stage' amp and its on (diff power wire) could it maybe be the remote wire?
