Re: 2ohm Bridge Mono




Eric, how did you end up with a slew of high-power pro subwoofers but yet you have old, low-power amps? As was said above, if you properly powered only one or two of those subs, it would most likely outperform all four on the small Crest amps you have, no matter what configuration you set the amps up in.


@Graham, I have used IT8000s with SRX718s extensively, and even with the limiters set, the amp almost always clips before the limiters kick in. So in most cases (aka, NOT EDM), the limiters would not matter much for the lesser-powered IT6000. (I am obviously assuming that the clip limiter will always be engaged.)


When I was young and stupid (wait a minute...), I was able to melt two SRX718s with an IT8000 after running EDM for three hours with no limiters.


@Tim, if an amp is capable of exceeding 50 amps continuous output (the rating of a Speakon), then you're either supplying it with camlocks, or the breaker is going to trip long before the Speakon melts.
