The audioque 2200 puts out 2200 its not under rated. If you apply the rms power to your subs it will not blow.

I wouldn't expect a significant audible output improvement by running them with 1000w+ vs 750.

Even if power compression weren't a factor that's only a theoretical increase of <1dB.

Another issue -- the 1500.1 is 1500w at 2 ohms, the 2200d is 2200w at 1 ohm. That presents an impedance mis-match with one amp or the other. Do you have dual 2's or 4's?

What size/type of enclosure are you using?

Hey Wayne, for what your going to pay on a aq2200 389shipped.
Just get a rd3250 v2 pre sale from steve 425shipped just 36 dollars more of what the AQ is and you get 1000+ more watts. If you dont need the extra wattage now just adjust your gain . But eventually you might need it and you wont have to upgrade cause you will already have a kick @ss amp. I just ordered one and I just need 2k watts for now. check this thread.
