Wednesday, July 09, 2008 - 16:22 GMT You only need one channel for subs, just connect them both. And you'd only have 2 hooked up if you go with the W6s. DON'T ever mix different subs.

Wednesday, July 09, 2008 - 17:14 GMT The 1000/1 will deliver 1000w into any impedance between 1.5 and 4 ohms. If you have 1 4 ohm sub connected it will get 1000w. If you have 2 4 ohm subs connected in parallel (2 ohms) they will each get 500w. If you have three subs connected you'd want them to either be dvc 4's wired for 2.67 ohms or dvc 2's wired for 3 ohms - either way you'd get 333w per sub. I also agree though - don't mix w3's/w6's.

Wednesday, July 09, 2008 - 18:34 GMT Each sub gets 500w as long as you wire them right
