Bronze Member Username: EricrustySAN ANTONIO, TX United States Post Number: 11 Registered: Jun-06 | Ok I get you, thanks man. One more thing though, would it be a good idea to get a multimeter and hook it up to my speakers just to make sure it has 4 ohm, to make sure it's right? |

Bronze Member Username: EricrustySAN ANTONIO, TX United States Post Number: 12 Registered: Jun-06 | ahh ok it makes sense ...lol.... i had it hooked up according to the 1 ohm diagram, and that would have cost me to blow fuses right?? 1050 watts RMS x 1 at 4 ohms in bridged mode 4-ohm stable in bridged mode so giving it a 4 ohm load it shouldn't have no problems? |
