The amp is stable at 4ohms which will be 150 per channel x2.. I am guessing that the amp is modded because the bridging configuration works great which means that now that I am running it at 2ohm, I should be able to achieve the full 600 watts at 300 per channel x2.. I set the sub to the 2 ohm conf...

Bridged

I have been reading a lot of articles about old school Orions that have mods.. I took a chance and hooked the orange to positive and yellow to negative and it works like a charm.. I am running a single low pass coil crossover to the positive. I ran it for at least 20 minutes and the amp did not over...

I am running a line out converter from my Monsoon amp that comes stock with the Jetta.. How would I just run 1 channel on this amp? Do I just plug 1 rca in from the converter or both and ...

How would you run 1 channel and get the full 300 watts? Is there a specific crossover or eq that I need in order to really reap...
