[QUOTE="Loren Jones, post: 35297, member: 829"] Re: Sub Amp? 1 large amp or 2 smaller amps. Just by way of followup I thought I would post what we ended up doing. Basically my eyes (gearlust) got way bigger than our need. I was thinking we would need 4 of these 21" front-loaded sub cabinets that I built to really cover our needs. But in the end I tried just the pair of them. Each was powered with a bridged MA2400 (8 ohm cabinets). They have no trouble handling our services and in fact I have generated complaints about the bass impact being too great. We are generally hitting 100 to 105 dbC (90 to 95 dbA) on fast response at the back of our room. In the end the MA2400 seems like a good match for these subs in our application. They could handle somewhat more power without damage, but with rookies like me running the system it will be basically impossible to hurt them under any use short of 20 hz sine waves at full power. Thanks for all the interesting discussion. Loren Jones [/QUOTE]
