A more powerful amp seems to be the take-away. Do you folks have any objections to running one in bridged mode? It's just that way seems like such an easy way for a guy like me with a miniscule budget to get to the goal. However, if a mono block or high power stereo amp is preferred, I will start saving more peanuts.
I'm not sure, why don't these companies post what class their amp is under specifications?? I don't understand the technicals and mathematics like I once did. Ever hear of Audio Control? I've got one of their C-101 equalizers from my marantz days. They're still around and making amps. They've got this RS-1000 specifically designed for subwoofer use, mono @ 1000 watts, 2/4/8 ohm or so it says: https://www.audiocontrol.com/downloa...ser-manual.pdf SNR of almost 100dB..
Too pricy for me at the moment and have fans, but maybe down the road. What really makes this company great are their user manuals, there's tons of humor speckled in them. So not your typical, put you to sleep read.
