Well, I'm having a very hard time finding a USED ITech 6000. I'll have some tax money on Friday and I know where I can get 54 USED IT4000's for $1300.00 a piece. So I'll pick up the IT 4000 next week. I only need one IT4000 for 2 SRX 722's , but I can't find a USED IT 6000 (for the SRX 728's) anywhere.

So I thought I'd ask, how big of a difference would there be if I use an IT4000 instead of an IT6000 on the 728's? The main reason I want the IT 6000 for the subs is because there will be times I'm going to run two 728's a side off the amp. The 2 ohm stereo rating on the IT 6000 is a little better.

I'm sure the IT 4000 will be a big improvement over the RMX 4050HD I've been using on sub duty. Since I'm having a hard time finding a USED IT 6000, I may just get an IT 4000 for the subs as well. It just depends on how big the difference will be between the 4000 and the 6000 on the 728's.

I await your responses. Thanks everybody.

What kind of music are you working with?
How big of venues?

Most of my venues & bands (under 400 people & rock music), I could get away with an IT4000 on bottom end. But when I have 3 per channel or GoGo/Rap/Hip-Hop; I think the IT4000 would be in limiters most of the show.

I did a show with 450 people & Go-Go/R&B and the IT8000 was in the limiters and would trip the 20amp breaker when the drummer hit the 808 sampler.

The IT6000 is already a bit small if you like headroom, so the IT4000 is way too small if you want to get the most out of your subs. That said, if you get it, and the result is that the subs get loud enough for you, then you're golden.

I can attest to the fact that on LAB subs, the difference between an IT4000 and an IT8000 is quite noticeable.
