[QUOTE="Randy Gartner, post: 205848, member: 104"] A few months ago, I asked about up grading my sub amps from 2 -QSC PLX 3402's to 2-Lab Gruppen FP 3400's to power my 4 double 18 subs. The 3402's are rated at 1100 watts per side at 4ohm and the FP 3400's rated at 1500 watts per side at 4ohms.I was told I would not be able to hear any audible difference by increasing the amps by 400 watts. I'm here to tell you you were wrong. I run 4 way and use the FP's on the subs. I could immediately tell the difference not only in the audio level,but in the punch too. In fact, I was running my Ashley Protea at + 11 with the QSC's and had to turn it down to + 8 with the Labs. I moved the 3402 to the lows and the 3002 that I had on the lows to mid duty. I have a Lab Gruppen FP2400 on the highs. My console is a Midas Pro1. I wasn't the only one who noticed the difference.Thanks to Steve Payne for selling me the amps. [/QUOTE]
