I was thinking about getting either the MTX thunder 801D or the 1500D but i didn't know if the 1500 would over power them...it is rated at 750 X 1 at 4 ohms...the subs take 800 rms.. 2 MTX 8000 10's...and i didn't want to underpower them with the 801D b/c it is rated at 400 X 1 at 4 ohms..What does everyone else think. Is the 801D to little or is the 1500D to big? |

the 801d and 1501d are 2 channel amps and an 801d will pound the hell out of 2 mtx 8000 10's |

if your subs can run at 2 ohms the 801d will do 800 watts wired in parallel to the mono channel of the amp. |

trust me that 1501D will pound the hell out of them 10s to. you will be pushing 1000 watts per speaker, the 1501 is 1500 rms.. But thats at 2 ohms. |

An 801D will power your subs perfectly, 1500 is pushing your limits. I think you're looking at the peak rating, the MTX 8000 10" subs are 400W RMS, at a 2 ohm load an 801D is perfect for them as it'll give each sub 400W RMS. |
